Oh, Tell Me The Truth About Love 歌詞
Oh, Tell Me The Truth About Love - Andreas Schnermann/Ingra Lühning
Some say that love's a little boy
Some say it's a bird
Some say it makes the world go round
Some say that's absurd
And when I asked the man next door
Who looked as if he knew
His wife got very cross indeed
And said it wouldn't do
Does it look like a pair of pyjamas
Or the ham in a temperance hotel
Does it's odour remind one of llamas
Or has it a comforting smell
Is it prickly to touch as a hedge is
Or soft as eiderdown fluff
Is it sharp or quite smooth at the edges
O tell me the truth about love
Our history books refer to it
In cryptic little notes
It's quite a common topic on
The Transatlantic boats
I've found the subject mentioned in
Accounts of suicides
And even seen it scribbled on
The backs of railway guides
Does it how I like a hungry Alsatian
Or boom like a military band
Could one give a first-rate imitation
On a saw or a Steinway Grand
Is it's singing at parties a riot
Does it only like Classical stuff
Will it stop when one wants to be quiet
Oh tell me the truth about love
I looked inside the summer-house
It wasn't even there
I tried the Thames at Maidenhead
And Brighton's bracing air
I don't know what the blackbird sang
Or what the tulip said
But it wasn't in the chicken-run
Or underneath the bed
Can it pull extraordinary faces
Is it usually sick on a swing
Does it spend all it's time at the races
Or fiddling with pieces of string
Has it views of it's own about money
Does it think Patriotism enough
Are it's stories vulgar but funny
Oh tell me the truth about love
When it comes will it come without warning
Just as I'm picking my nose
Will it knock on my door in the morning
Or tread in the bus on my toes
Will it come like a change in the weather
Will it's greeting be courteous or rough
Will it alter my life altogether
Oh tell me the truth about love
Ah
About love ah
Tell me the truth about love
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
The truth about love
Can you tell me the truth about love
The truth about love
