A Fine Romance

(album: Boy Meets Girl - 1957)

Gee, Sammy, I want to thank you for the wonderful time I had this evening
Well, I'm glad you had a wonderful time
I spent a buck eighty-five and the only thing I got to show for it common
Is two torn theater tickets, let me tell you something

A fine romance with no kisses
A fine romance, my friend, this is
Why, we should be like a couple of hot tomatoes
Ah, tomatoes, Sammy, oh I'm sorry
But you're as cold as yesterday's mashed potatoes
Potatoes, oh wow

A fine romance with no little clenches
A fine romance with no, no pinches
You're just as hard to land as the Isle de France
I haven't got a chance, this is a fine romance

Oh, Sam boy, I'm glad you brought this up because I have a few things to say
A fine romance with no kisses
A fine romance, my friend, this is
We two should be like clams in a dish of chowder
Sounds a little fishy to me
But we just fizz like parts of a settler's powder
Gee, I wish my dad and uncle were here

A fine romance, you won't nestle
A fine romance you won't even wrestle
I've never must the crease in your blue search pants
You never take a chance, my goodness
This is a fine romance

Well, I had no idea that you felt this way
If that's the situation I don't think that I'll be stepping out of line too much
If I was to ask you a little goodnight kiss, quite sure
I think I got enough nerve now to take a chance
Oh you've got me in a trance, wow, wow, we
This is a fine romance
