I like springtime flowers
That grow along the lane
I like sunshine showers
And walking in the rain

I like a three day weekend
And Sundays at the zoo
And in 25 words or less
I'll tell you why I like you

You got the sensational smile
Irresistible eyes
Oh, but the fascinatin' thing about you
Is you look lonesome too

I like a wet martini
But I take my whiskey neat
I like toast and honey
'Cause that makes my morning sweet

I like a nightclub after hours
I like the Colman Hawkins blues
And in 25 words or less
I'll tell you why I like you

You got the sensational smile
Irresistible eyes
Oh, but the fascinatin' thing about you
Is you look lonesome too

I like a tropical island
I play my ukulele in the lagoon
I climb up the coconut tree
Hula hula with the local baboon

I like milkshakes, cupcakes
Clambakes, sweepstakes
Lazy afternoons

And in 25 words or less
I'll tell you why I like you
You got the sensational smile
Irresistible eyes
Oh, but the fascinatin' thing about you
Is you look lonesome, I'm so lonesome
And you look lonesome too
