But Not for Me 歌詞

Lyrics：Ira Gershwin
Music：George Gershwin

Old Man Sunshine - Listen, you!
Never tell me Dreams Come True!
Just try it -
And I'll start a riot.
Beatrice Fairfax - don't you dare
Ever tell me he will care;
I'm certain
It's the Final Curtain.
I never want to hear
From any cheer-
Ful Polyannas,
Who tell you Fate
Supplies a Mate -
It's all bananas!

They're writing songs of love,

But not for me;
A lucky star's above,
But not for me.

With Love to Lead the Way,
I've found more skies of Gray
Than any Russian play
Could Guarantee.

I was a fool to fall
And Get That Way;
Heigh ho! Alas! And al-
So Lackaday!

Although I can't dismiss
The mem'ry of his kiss -
I guess he's not for me.
