but not for me - fred hersch & esperanza spalding lyrics
[verse 1]
old man sunshine, listen, you
don’t you tell me dreams come true
just try it and i’ll start a riot
beatrice fairfax, don’t you dare
ever tell me, he will care
i’m certain, it’s the final curtain
i never wanna hear
from any cheerful pollyannas
who tell you fate supplies a mate
it’s all bananas
[verse 2]
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 found more clouds of gray
than any russian play
could guarantee
i was a fool to fall
and get that way
hi*ho, alas, and al—
so, lack*a*day
but still i can’t dismiss
the memory of his kiss
i guess he’s not for me
[verse 3]
he’s knocking on a door
but not for me
hе’ll plan a two*by*four
but not for me
i’ve heard that lovе’s a game
i’m puzzled just the same
was i the moth or flame?
i’m all at sea
it started off so swell
this “let’s pretend”
it all began so well
but what an end
the climax of a plot
should be a marriage knot
but there’s no knot for me
