I Get a Kick Out of You Lyrics
My story is much to sad to be told
But practically everything 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
Then I suddenly turn and see
Your fabulous face
Chorus:
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 terrifically too
But I get a kick out of you
( some like the bop-type refrain )
( I’m sure that if, I heard even one riff )
( it would bore me terrifically too )
( but I get a kick out of you )
( some they may go for cocaine )
( i’m sure that if, I took even one sniff )
( it would bore me terrifically too )
( but I get a kick out of you )
I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me
I get a kick though 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
But I get a kick out of you
But practically everything 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
Then I suddenly turn and see
Your fabulous face
Mere alcohol doesn’t thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
I’m sure that if I took even one sniff
It would bore me terrifically too
But I get a kick out of you
( I’m sure that if, I heard even one riff )
( it would bore me terrifically too )
( but I get a kick out of you )
( i’m sure that if, I took even one sniff )
( it would bore me terrifically too )
( but I get a kick out of you )
I get a kick though it’s clear to see, you obviously do not adore me
Flying too high with some gal in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
But I get a kick out of you

Leave it to Frank Sinatra to throw in a few lyrics about blowing lines. I love this man.
Good song. I love Frank.
yeah the coke line always makes me laugh a little too...
It's such an easy song to listen to. I love it.
btw, It was written by Cole Porter, not Sinatra.
Other people get censored for mentioning drugs but not Frank — he's just too classy. XD
