A Fine Romance

RomanceA Fine Version) - Billie Holiday
A fine romance with no kisses

A fine romance my friend this is
We should be like a couple of hot tomatoes

But you' re as cold as yesterday's mashed potatoes

A fine romance you won't nestle

A fine romance you won't wrestle
I might as well play bridge
With my old maid aunt

I haven't got a chance

This is a fine romance

A fine romance my good fellow

You take romance I'll take jello
You're calmer than the seals
In the Arctic Ocean

At least they flap their fins
To express emotion

A fine romance with no quarrels

With no insults and all morals
I've never mussed the crease
In your blue serge pants

I never get the chance

This is a fine romance
