I Like the Likes of You
Only last Saturday,
Or was it yesterday?
I was rehearsing a speech,
Really, I think it's a peach!
Hope you don't think it's a breach
Of recognized etiquette,
(I'm from Connecticut!)
You see the state I'm in,
I mean I'm in a mess!
What was that speech?
Oh yes, yes!
I like the likes of you,
I like the things you do,
I mean I like the likes of you!
I like you're eyes of blue,
I think they're blue, don't you?
I mean I like your eyes of blue!
Oh dear, if I could only say what I mean,
I mean if I could mean what I say,
That is, I mean to say that I mean to say that,
I like the likes of you,
You're looks are pure de-luxe,
Looks like I like the likes of you!
Oh dear, if I could only say what I mean,
I mean if I could mean what I say,
That is, I mean to say that I mean to say that,
I like the likes of you,
You're looks are pure de-luxe,
Looks like I like the likes of you!
