Let's Call the Whole Things Off

Let's Call the Whole Things Off - Ella Fitzgerald

Written by：Ira Gershwin/George Gershwin

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 calling off 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 say 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
