IT’S DE-LOVELY

I feel a sudden urge to sing
The kind of ditty that invokes the spring
So control your desire to curse
While I crucify the verse
This verse I’ve started seems to me
The true antithesis of melody
So to spare you all the pain
I’ll skip the darn thing and sing the refrain

The night is young, the skies are clear
And if you want to go walking dear
It’s delightful, it’s delicious, it’s delovely
I understand the reason why
you’re sentimental ‘cause so am I
It’s delightful, it’s delicious, it’s delovely

You can tell at a glance
What a swell night this is for romance
You can hear dear mother nature murmuring low
Let yourself go

So please be sweet my chickadee
And when I kiss you just say to me
It’s delightful, it’s delicious, it’s delectable,
it’s delirious, It’s dileman, it’s de limit,
it’s de looks, it’s delovely
