Lisa Ekdahl - Down With Love lyrics

rate me

(H.Arlen/E.Y.Harburg)

Down with love

With flowers and rice and shoes

Down with love

The root of all midnight blues

Down with things

That give you that well-known pain

Take that moon

And wrap it in cellophane

Down with love let's liquidate

All it's friends

Like moon, June, roses

And rainbow's ends

Down with songs

That mourn about night and day

Down with love

Take it away, away

Take it away, take it away

Give it back to the birds

To bees and the Viennese

Down with eyes romantic and stupid

Down with sighs, down with cupid

Brother let's stuff that dove

Take it away, take it away

Give it back to the birds

To bees and the Viennese

Down with eyes romantic and stupid

Down with sighs, down with cupid

Brother let's stuff that dove

Down down down

Down with love
