Irving Berlin
I’d Love To Be Shot From A Cannon With You
I'm tired of doing the same things over and over again
You must admit that it's a bore
I keep longing for a change
Something different, something strange
That we have never done before
I'd love to be shot from a cannon with you
Now that's something diff'rent that I'd like to do
We'd float through the air in a way that
I never could forget the day that
I was shot from a cannon with you
I'd love to be caught in a mousetrap with you
We're hungry and so there is one thing to do
We'd soon hear a couple of mouses
Yell out, "They ate our cheese, the louses!"
When I'm caught in a mousetrap with you
I'd love to escape a hotel room with you
We'd open the window and quickly jump through
And just when we get to the bottom
The cameraman says, "Cut! I got 'em!"
When I'm in a hotel room with you
