i get a kick out of you

my story is much too sad to be told

but practically everything

leaves me totally cold. the only exception i know is the case

when i'm out on a quiet spree

fighting vainly the old enui

and i suddenly turn and see

your fabulous face. i get no kick from champagne

mere alchohol doesn't thrill me at all

so tell me why should it be true

that i get a kick

out of you

some get a kick from cocain

i'm sure that if i took even one sniff

that would bore me terrificly too

yet i get a kick out of you

i get a kick every time i see you standing there before me

i get a kick though its clear to me you obviously don't

adore me

i get no kick in a plane

flying too high

with some guy in the sky is my idea of nothing to do

yet i get a kick

out of you
