I Don't Think I'll Fall in Love Today Lyrics

1928 Broadway
Treasure Girl the Musical - I Don't Think I'll Fall in Love Today Lyrics


The song is written by George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin.

ANN:
Just think of what love leads to
Maybe marriage, maybe divorce

NEIL:
Into a jam love speeds two
It may be nature's course
But we mustn't be
Like the other sheep

ANN:
Better far if we
Look before we leap

BOTH:
Perhaps it's better after all
If we don't answer nature's call

NEIL:
Who knows if we'd agree?
You like you and I like me
I don't think I'll fall in love today

ANN:
When evening shadows creep
I like dancing

NEIL:
I like sleep
I don't think I'll fall in love today

ANN:
Still, it might be fun to bring
Your carpet slippers
When the dinner bell would ring
I'd serve a can of kippers

NEIL:
Don't you know how to cook?

ANN:
I could look in a book

NEIL:
I don't think Ill fall in love today
Love is a fever chronic
We can avoid it. Why take a chance?

ANN:
Safer to be platonic
Why burn up with romance?

NEIL:
Adam without Eve
Happiness had known
So suppose we leave
Well enough alone?

ANN:
Imagine signing up for life
Then finding peas roll off his knife

NEIL:
Do you sleep with window shut?

ANN:
Window shut

NEIL:
Charming, but
I don't think I'll fall in love today

ANN:
Did you pick that cravat?

NEIL:
I did that

ANN:
Here's your hat
I don't think I'll fall in love today

BOTH:
It's as clear as A-B-C
We're not agreeing
Incompatibility
The judge would be decreeing
When all is said and done
Seems we two will never be one
Let's oh, let's not fall in love today

ANN:
Do you play bridge or whist?

NEIL:
I like pinochle

ANN:
I insist
I don't think I'll fall in love today

NEIL:
To what symphonies do you go?

ANN:
All I know is "vo-de-o"

NEIL:
I don't think I'll fall in love today
Is the combination wrong?
I've wondered lately

ANN:
We should never get along
Not even companionately

BOTH:
When all is said and done
Dear, we two will never be one
Let's oh, let's not fall in love today
