Delishious - George Gershwin

What can I say

To sing my praise of you?

I must reveal

The things I feel

What can I say?

Each lovely phase of you

Just seems to baffle my descriptive powers

Four and twenty hours

Of every day

What can I say?

What is the thing

I’d love to sing?

I’ve said you’re marvelous

I’ve said you’re wonderful

And yet that’s not it

Now, let me see

I think I’ve got it

You’re so delishious

And so caprishious

I grow ambishious

To have you care for me

In that connecshion

You’re my selecshion

For true affecshion

For all the time to be

Oh, I’ve had one, two, three, four, five

Six, seven, eight, nine, ten girls before

But now there’s one, and you’re the one

The one girl I adore

'Cause you’re delishious

And so caprishious

If I’m repetishious

It’s 'cause you’re so delishious
