Down With Love - Live in Concert
Alright
And now for my next track
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
Wrap it in cellophane
Down with love let's liquidate
All it's friends
Like moon, and June, and roses
And rainbow's ends
Down with songs
That mourn about night and day
Down with love
Take it away, away
(I'll come president)
Take it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds
And bees and the viennese
(Let's see what you're doing over here!)
Down with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs, down with cupid
Brother let's stuff that dove
Down with love
Down with love
Let's liquidate all it's friends
Like moon, June, roses
And rainbow's ends
Down with song
That mourns about night and day
You are the one...
And I don't stand a chance with a ghost like you
Ah, the promised kiss of spring is here
What does my heart go dancin' overhead
On the ceiling near my bed?
We gone now
Because I talk to the trees
But they don't listen to me
I tell them, you say either, I say neither
You say neither, I say neither
Either, neither
Either, neither
Let's call the whole thing off!
Take it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds
And the 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
I go round and round and...
I go in a spin
Hey, in the spin, I'm in!
What is this thing...
What is this thing called love?
(I don't know)
And now for my next track
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
Wrap it in cellophane
Down with love let's liquidate
All it's friends
Like moon, and June, and roses
And rainbow's ends
Down with songs
That mourn about night and day
Down with love
Take it away, away
(I'll come president)
Take it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds
And bees and the viennese
(Let's see what you're doing over here!)
Down with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs, down with cupid
Brother let's stuff that dove
Down with love
Down with love
Let's liquidate all it's friends
Like moon, June, roses
And rainbow's ends
Down with song
That mourns about night and day
You are the one...
And I don't stand a chance with a ghost like you
Ah, the promised kiss of spring is here
What does my heart go dancin' overhead
On the ceiling near my bed?
We gone now
Because I talk to the trees
But they don't listen to me
I tell them, you say either, I say neither
You say neither, I say neither
Either, neither
Either, neither
Let's call the whole thing off!
Take it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds
And the 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
I go round and round and...
I go in a spin
Hey, in the spin, I'm in!
What is this thing...
What is this thing called love?
(I don't know)
