Some of my favorite lyrics of Cole Porter’s Classics
Lets Do it
Birds do it, bees do it Even educated fleas do it Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
In Spain, the best upper sets do it Lithuanians and Lets do it Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
The Dutch in old Amsterdam do it Not to mention the Fins Folks in Siam do it – think of Siamese twins Some Argentines, without means, do it People say in Boston even beans do it Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
Romantic sponges, they say, do it Oysters down in oyster bay do it Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
Cold Cape Cod clams, ‘gainst their wish, do it Even lazy jellyfish, do it Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
Electric eels I might add do it Though it shocks em I know Why ask if shad do it – Waiter bring me “shad roe” In shallow shoals English soles do it. Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
I love Paris
Every time i look down on this timeless town,Whether blue or gray be her skies,
Whether loud be her cheers, or whether soft be her tears,More and more do I realize that…I love Paris in the spring time. I love Paris in the fall. I love Paris in the winter when it drizzles I love Paris in the summer when it sizzles. I love Paris every moment every moment of the year
I love Paris, why oh why do I love Paris because my love is near.
