Let's Call the Whole Thing Off |
|
Things have come to a pretty pass |
|
Our romance is growing flat, |
|
For you like this and the other |
|
While I go for this and that, |
|
Goodness knows what the end will be |
|
Oh I don't know where I'm at |
|
It looks as if we two will never be one |
|
Something must be done: |
|
You say either and I say either, |
|
You say neither and I say neither |
|
Either, either Neither, neither |
|
Let's call the whole thing off. |
|
You like potato and I like potahto |
|
You like tomato and I like tomahto |
|
Potato, potahto, Tomato, tomahto. |
|
Let's call the whole thing off |
|
But oh, if we call the whole thing off |
|
Then we must part |
|
And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart |
|
So if you like pyjamas and I like pyjahmas, |
|
I'll wear pyjamas and give up pyajahmas |
|
For we know we need each other so we |
|
Better call the whole thing off |
|
Let's call the whole thing off. |
|
You say laughter and I say larfter |
|
You say after and I say arfter |
|
Laughter, larfter after arfter |
|
Let's call the whole thing off, |
|
You like vanilla and I like vanella |
|
You saspiralla, and I saspirella |
|
Vanilla vanella chocolate strawberry |
|
Let's call the whole thing off |
|
But oh if we call the whole thing of then we must part |
|
And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart |
|
So if you go for oysters and I go for ersters |
|
I'll order oysters and cancel the ersters |
|
For we know we need each other so we |
|
Better call the calling off off, |
|
Let's call the whole thing off. |
|
I say father, and you say pater, |
|
I saw mother and you say mater |
|
Pater, mater Uncle, auntie let's call the whole thing off. |
|
I like bananas and you like banahnahs |
|
I say Havana and I get Havahnah |
|
Bananas, banahnahs Havana, Havahnah |
|
Go your way, I'll go mine |
|
So if I go for scallops and you go for lobsters, |
|
So all right no contest we'll order lobseter |
|
For we know we need each other so we |
|
Better call the calling off off, |
|
Let's call the whole thing off. |
