A Fine Romance

A Fine Romance - Fred Astaire/Ginger Rogers

A fine romance with no kisses

A fine romance my friend this is

We should be like

A couple of hot tomatoes

But you're as cold as

Yesterday's mashed potatoes

A fine romance you won't nestle

A fine romance you won't wrestle

I've never mussed the crease

In your blue serge pants

I never have the chance

This is a fine romance

A fine romance my good fellow

You take romance I'll take jello

You're calmer than the seals

In the Arctic Ocean

At least they flap their fins

To express emotion

A fine romance with no quarrels

With no insults and all morals

You're just as hard to land as the Ile de France

I never get the chance

This is a fine romance

A fine romance with no kisses

A fine romance my friend this is

True love should have the thrills that a healthy crime has

We don't have the thrills that the march of time has

A fine romance with no clinches

A fine romance with no pinches

You never give the orchids I send a glance

No you like cactus plants

This is a fine romance
