Twenty-five Words Or Less

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
