I Can't Get Started Songtext

I Can't Get Started Songtext
I′m a glum one
It's explainable
I met someone
Unattainable
Life′s a bore
The world is my oyster no more
All the papers
Where I led the news
With my capers
Now will spread the news
Supergal
Is punchy
And losing morale
I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But can′t get started with you
Around a golf course I′m under par
And all the movies want me to star
I've got a house, a showplace
But I get no place with you
You′re so supreme
Lyrics I write of you
Scheme just for a sight of you
Dream both day and night of you
And what good does it do?
The market trembles when I sell short
In England I'm presented at court
But you′ve got me downhearted
'Cause I can′t get started with you
I've sold my kisses at a bazaar
And after me they've named a cigar
And yet I′m broken-hearted
I can′t get started with you
Why Lucius Beebe quotes me on styles
And Pepsodent used one of my smiles
The Vanderbilts I visit
But say, what is it with you?
Oh tell me why
Am I no kick to you?
I who'd always stick to you
Fly through thin and thick to you
Tell me why I′m taboo
Though beauty columns ask my advice
Though I was Miss America twice
Still you've got me outsmarted
′Cause I can't get started with you
I can′t get started
I can't get started with you
It's explainable
I met someone
Unattainable
Life′s a bore
The world is my oyster no more
All the papers
Where I led the news
With my capers
Now will spread the news
Supergal
Is punchy
And losing morale
I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But can′t get started with you
Around a golf course I′m under par
And all the movies want me to star
I've got a house, a showplace
But I get no place with you
You′re so supreme
Lyrics I write of you
Scheme just for a sight of you
Dream both day and night of you
And what good does it do?
The market trembles when I sell short
In England I'm presented at court
But you′ve got me downhearted
'Cause I can′t get started with you
I've sold my kisses at a bazaar
And after me they've named a cigar
And yet I′m broken-hearted
I can′t get started with you
Why Lucius Beebe quotes me on styles
And Pepsodent used one of my smiles
The Vanderbilts I visit
But say, what is it with you?
Oh tell me why
Am I no kick to you?
I who'd always stick to you
Fly through thin and thick to you
Tell me why I′m taboo
Though beauty columns ask my advice
Though I was Miss America twice
Still you've got me outsmarted
′Cause I can't get started with you
I can′t get started
I can't get started with you
