But Not For Me - Judy Blazer

作词：Ira Gershwin

作曲：George Gershwin

Old man sunshine listen you

Never 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 want to 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've found more clouds of gray

Than any Russian play could guarantee

I was a fool to fall and get that way

Hi-ho alas and also lack-a-day

Love ain't done right by nell

However what the hell

I guess he's not for me

He's knocking on a door

But not for me

He'll plan a two by four

But not for me

I've heard that love's a game

I'm puzzled just the same

Was I the moth or flame

I'm all at sea

It started off so swell

This let's pretend

It all began so well

But what an end

The climax of a plot

Should be the marriage knot

But there's no knot for me
