Fred astaire a fine romance lyrics

A fine romance with no kisses

 A fine romance, my friend, this is

 We should be like a couple of hot tomatoes (to-mah-toes, dear)

 But you're as cold as yesterday's mashed po-tah-toes (potatoes)

 

 A fine romance, you won't nestle

 A fine romance, you won't even wrestle

 You've never mussed the crease in my blue serge pants

 You never take 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, my dear Duchess

 Two old fogies, we really need crutches

 You're just as hard to land as the Ile de France! (Fronce)

 I haven't got a chonce (chance), this is a fine romance

 

 A fine romance, my good woman

 My strong, aged-in-the-wood woman

 You never give those orchids I send a glance

 They're just like cactus plants, (oh boy)

 This is a fine romance!
