I Can't Get Started (1952)

歌詞

I'm a glum one It's explainable I've met someone unattainable Life's a bore The world is my oyster no more All the papers Where I lead the news With my capers Now will spread the news Superwoman turns out to be A flash-in-the-pan I've flown around the world in a plane I've settled revolutions in Spain The North Pole I have charted But I can't get started with you On the golf course I'm under par And all the movies have asked me to star I've got a house that is a show place I can't get no place with you You're so supreme Lyrics that I write of you Scheme, just for a sight of you And I dream both day and night of you And what good does it do In 1929, I sold short In London, I'm presented at court But you've got me down hearted, Cause I can't get started with you When first we met, how you elated me Pet, you devastated me Yet, now you've deflated me Till, you're my Waterloo I've sold my kisses at a bazaar And after me they have named a cigar With kings and queens l've a la carted Can't get started with you
