Hollywood Palace, 02/06/1965.

They're writing songs of love,
But not for me
A lucky stars above,
But not for me!

With love to lead the way,
I've found more clouds of gra-ay
Than any Russian play
Coud garauntee

I was a fool to fall,
And get that way
Hi-Ho alas
and also lack a day

Although I can't dismiss
the memory of her kiss,
I guess she's not for me

It all began so well,
But what an end
This is the time a fellow needs a friend.
When every happy plot
Ends with a marriage not
And there’s no, not, no, not for me
They writing songs of love but not for me

***

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'll have to sneak up to it
Someday, and speak up to it.
I hope it listens when I say:

Refrain:
Fascinating Rhythm,
You've got me on the go!
Fascinating Rhythm,
I'm all a-quiver.

When a mess you're 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 gal I used to be!
Fascinating rhythm,
On won't you stop picking on me?

***

There are many many crazy things
That will keep me loving you
And with your permission
May I list a few

The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea
The memory of all that
No they can't take that away from me

The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No they can't take that away from me

We may never never meet again, on that bumpy road to love
But I'll always, always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three

The way you changed my life
No they can't take that away from me
