Fascinating Rhythm

Fascinating Rhythm - George Gershwin As Pianist/Fred Astaire/Adele Astaire

Got a little rhythm a rhythm a rhythm

That pit-a-pats through my brain

So darn persistent

The day isn't distant

When it'll drive me insane

Comes in the morning

Without any warning

And hangs around me all day

I feel sneak to it

I feel sneak to it

I hope this when I say

Fascinating Rhythm

You've got me on the go

Fascinating Rhythm

I'm all a-quiver

When a mess making

The neighbours want to know

Why I'm always shaking

Just like a flivver

Each morning I get up with the sun

Start a-hopping

Never stopping

To find at night no work has been done

I know that

Once it didn't matter

But now you're doing wrong

When you start to patter

I'm so unhappy

Won't you take a day off

Decide to run along

Somewhere far away off

And make it snappy

Oh how I long to be the man I used to be

Fascinating rhythm

You got to stop picking on me

Fascinating Rhythm

I'm all a-quiver

Why you're always shaking

Just like a flivver

Each morning I get up with the sun

To find at night no work has been done

I know that

Once it didn't matter

But now you're doing wrong

When you start to patter

I'm so unhappy

Won't you take a day off

Decide to run along

Somewhere far away off

And make it snappy

Oh how I long to be the man I used to be

Fascinating rhythm

You got to stop picking on me
