They're writing songs of love - but not for me
  A lucky star's above - but not for me
  With love to lead the way
  I've found more clouds of gray
  Than any Russian play - can guarantee
  
  I was a fool to fall - and get this way
  Ah ho alas and awe - so lackaday
  Although I can't dismiss
  The memory of her kiss
  I guess she's not - she's not for me
  
  Old man sunshine - listen you
  Never tell me dreams come true
  Just try it - and all start a riot
  
  Beatrice Fairfax don't you dare
  Ever tell me she will care
  I'm certain - it's the final curtain
  
  I never want to here from any cheerful Polly-Anna's
  Who tell you fate supplies a mate - it's all bananas
  
  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 knot
  And there's no knot, no (k)not for me
