You can take the moon, gather up the stars And the robins that sing merrily Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
You can take the flowers, down in lovers lane And that sentimental poetry Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
Not for me, all that stuff The dreams that ruin your sleep Not for me, had enough Love is one thing you can keep
You can take the plans and the wedding bells And whoever sings, \"Oh, promise me\" Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea 'Cause love and I we don't agree
Hansoms through the park, kisses in the dark All the promises made faithfully Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
And you won't go wrong if you take a song Sung by Frankie Boy or Mr. C Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
Not for me, all that stuff Not for me, had enough
You know what to do with good old tea for two And the girl for you, the boy for me Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea 'Cause love and I we don't agree
