I Get A Kick Out Of You
(Porter)
Verse:
My story is much to sad to be told
But practically everything leaves me
totally cold
The only exception I know is the case
When I'm out on a quiet spree, fighting
vainly the old ennui
Then I suddenly turn and see
Your fabulous face
Chorus:
I get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some like the perfume from Spain
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
It would bore me terrifically too
But I get a kick out of you
(
Some like the bop-type
refrain
)
(
I'm sure that if, I heard even one
riff )
(
It would bore me terrifically
too
)
(
But I get a kick out of
you
)
(
Some they may go for
cocaine
)
(
I'm sure that if, I took even one
sniff )
(
It would bore me terrifically
too
)
(
But I get a kick out of
you
)
I get a kick every time I see you
standing there before me
I get a kick though it's clear to see,
you obviously do not adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high with some gal in the
sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
But I get a kick out of you
