Any Little Fish - Noel Coward and Orchestra/Gertrude Lawrence

I've fallen in love with you

I'm taking it badly

Freezing burning

Tossing turning

Never know when to laugh or cry

Just look what our dull friends do

They welcome it gladly

Passion in a dromedary doesn't go so deep

Camels when they're mating never sob themselves to sleep

Buffaloes can revel in it so can sheep

Why can't I

Any little fish can swim

Any little bird can fly

Any little dog

Or any little cat

Can do a bit of this

And just a bit of that

Any little horse can neigh

And any little cow can moo

But I can't do anything at all

But just love you

Any little cock can crow

Any little fox can run

Any little crab

On any little shore

Can have a little dab

And then a little more

Any little owl can hoot too whit too woo

Any any little dove can coo

But I can't do anything at all

But just love you

You've pulled me across the brink'

You've chained me and bound me

No escape now

Where's the crepe now

When is the funeral going to be

Whenever I stop to think see nature all around me

Then I see how stupidly monogamous I am

A lion in the circumstances wouldn't give a damn

For if there were no lioness he'd lie down with a lamb

Why not me

Any little bug can bite

Any little bee can buzz

Any little snail

On any little oak

Can feel a little frail

And have a little joke

Any little frog can jump

Like any little kangaroo

But I can't do anything at all

But just love you

Any little duck can quack

Any little worm can crawl

Any little mole

Can frolic in the sun

And make a little hole

And have a little fun

Any little snake can hiss

In any little local zoo

But I can't do anything at all

But just love you
