"But Not For Me" lyrics

Old Man Sunshine, listen, you
Never 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 want to hear from
Any cheerful Pollyannas
Who tell you fate supplies a mate
It's all bananas

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 grey
Than any Russian play
Could guarantee

I was a fool to fall
And get that way
Hi ho! Alas!
And also lack a day!
Although I can't dismiss
The memory of his kiss
I guess he's not for me
