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 a Coleman 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 and 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

'Cause you got the sensational smile, irresistible eyes
Oh but the fascinatin' thing about you
Is you look lonesome, I'm so lonesome
You look lonesome too
