a fine romance
fitzgerald, ella
we should be like a couple of hot tomatoes
but you're as cold as yesterday's mashed potatoes
i might as well play bridge
you're calmer than the seals
at least they flap their fins
a fine romance with no quarrels
with no insults and all morals
i've never mussed the crease
we two should be like clams in a dish of chowder
but we just fizz like parts of a seidlitz powder
you're just as hard to land as the ile de france!
