Lyrics Anita O'Day

Anita O'Day

I Get A Kick Out Of You

My story is much too 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 enui

and i suddenly turn and see,

your fabulous face.

I get no kick from Champagne

Mere alchohol doesn't thrill me at all

so tell me why should it be true

that i get a kick

out of you

Some get a kick from cocain

i'm sure that if i took even one sniff

that would bore me terrificly too

yet 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 its clear to me you obviously don't

adore me

I get no kick in a plane

Flying too high

with some guy in the sky is my idea of nothing to do

Yet I get a kick

Out of you
