I GET A KICK OUT OF YOU

My story is much too sad to be told,
but practic'ly ev'rything leaves me totally cold.

The only exception I know is the case
when I'm out on a quiet spree,

Fighting vainly the old ennui,
and I suddenly turn and see your fabulous face.

I get no kick from champagne,
mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all.

So tell me why should it be true
that I get a kick out of you?

Some like the perfume from Spain.
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff,
it would bore me terrific'ly too.

Yet I get a kick out of you.

I get a kick ev'ry time
I see you standing there before me.

I get a kick tho' it's clear to see
you obviously do not adore me.

I get no kick in a plane.
Flying too high with some gal in the sky
is my idea of nothing to do.

Yet I get a kick,
you give me a boost,
I get a kick out of you.
