Don't you tell me dreams come true
Just try it, and I'll start a riot
Beatrice Fairfax, don't you dare
Ever tell me he will care
I'm certain, it's the final curtain
I never wanna hear
From any cheerful Pollyannas
Who tell you Fate
Supplies a mate
It's all bananas!
They're writing songs of love
But not for me
A lucky star's above
But not for me
With love to lead the way
I found more clouds of gray
Than any Broadway play
Could guarantee
I was a fool to fall
And get that way
Hi-ho, alas
And also, lack-a-day
But still I can't dismiss
The memory of his kiss
I guess he's not for me
Old man sunshine, listen you Don't you tell me dreams come true Just try it, and I'll start a riot Beatrice Fairfax, don't you dare Ever tell me he will care I'm certain, it's the final curtain I never wanna hear From any cheerful Pollyannas Who tell you Fate Supplies a mate It's all bananas! They're writing songs of love But not for me A lucky star's above But not for me With love to lead the way I found more clouds of gray Than any Broadway play Could guarantee I was a fool to fall And get that way Hi-ho, alas And also, lack-a-day But still I can't dismiss The memory of his kiss I guess he's not for me Explain Request ×
