lirik lagu the finer things – paul gordon
blanche
you have such exquisite taste
chinese chippendale
walls swathed in festoons of silk
such ornate detail
but there’s one thing that is not in this hall
edward – this house could use a wife!
we’re lucky to live
in the great age of elegance
poetry, opera and art
sparing no expense
rembrandt and breughel and bosch
in this room
with a rug from chen chou
that spent a thousand days on the loom
these are the finer things
and what is finer than a bride?
pleasure and luxury
that only marriage can provide
the innuendo is implied
chateau lafitte twenty-eight
oh! the perfect drink!
so much more drinkable now
than last year, i think
make no mistake
like the taste of the wine
when it comes to a woman
you must scrutinize the vine
these are the finer things
and she must have what is her due
priceless engagement rings
a family jewel, or maybe two
and, but of course, my darling – you!
mozart and schumann and bach
wrote the finest notes
every cadenza delights
every cadence floats
music is glorious
but i declare
when it comes to a woman
schumann just cannot compare
these are the finer things
that only beauty can supply
these are the finer things
and what’s more beautiful than i?
for not a soul could give you more
arpeggios and trills
frolics and frills
soon you will see
of all your things
the very finest thing
is me!
