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 "Tin Pan-tithesis" of melody
So to spare you all the pain
I'll skip the darn thing and sing the refrain
Mi-mi-mi, re-re-re
Do-so-mi-do-la-ti
Take it away
The night is young, the skies are clear
And if you want to go walkin' dear
It's de-lightful, it's de-licious, it's de-lovely
I understand, the reason why
You're sentimental 'cause so am I
It's de-lightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
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 dilemma, it's de limit,
It's deluxe, it's de-lovely"
Time marches on, and soon it's plain
You've won my heart and I lost my brain
It's de-lightful, it's de-licious
It's de-lovely
Life seems so sweet, that we decide
It's in the bag to get unified
It's de-lightful, it's de-licious, it's de-lovely
See the crowd in that church
See the proud ___ plopped in his perch
Get the sweet beat of that organ sealing our doom
Here goes the groom, boom!
How they cheer, and how they smile
As we go galloping down the aisle
It's divine, dear; it's de-veen, dear
It's de-vondervat, it's de-victory
It's de-veloped, it's de-vena
It's de-voice, it's de-lovely
The night is tired, and so we take
A few hours off to eat wedding cake
It's de-lightful, it's de-licious, it's de-lovely
It feels so fine, to be a bride
And how's the groom?, why he's slightly fried
It's de-lightful, it's de-licious, it's de-lovely
To the pop of champagne
Off we hop, in our plush little plane
Till a bright light through the darkness cozily calls
"Niagara Falls"
All's well my love, our day's complete
And what a beautiful Bridal Suite
It's dreamy, it's dr-owsy
It's dr-reverie, it's dr-rhapsody
It's dr-regal, it's dr-royal
It's dr-Ritz, it's de-lovely
We settled down, as man and wife
To solve the riddle called Married Life
It's de-lightful, it's de-licious, it's de-lovely
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 "Tin Pan-tithesis" of melody
So to spare you all the pain
I'll skip the darn thing and sing the refrain
Mi-mi-mi, re-re-re
Do-so-mi-do-la-ti
Take it away
The night is young, the skies are clear
And if you want to go walkin' dear
It's de-lightful, it's de-licious, it's de-lovely

It's de-lightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
