Alfred Drake - It's a Bore lyrics

(Honore) Look at all the captivating fascinating things there are to do (Gaston) NAME TWO (Honore) Look at all the pleasures All the myriad of treasures we have got (Gaston) LIKE WHAT? Look at Paris in the spring when each solitary thing is more beautiful than ever before You can see every tree almost saying "Look at me!" WHAT COLOR ARE THE TREE? Green! WHAT COLOR WERE THEY LAST YEAR? Green! AND THE NEXT YEAR? Green! IT'S A BORE! Don't you marvel at the power of the mighty Eiffel Tower Knowing there it will remain evermore! Climbing up to the sky Over ninety stories high HOW MANY STORIES? Ninety! HOW MANY YESTERDAY? Ninety!! AND TOMORROW? Ninety!!! IT'S A BORE! The River Seine ALL IT CAN DO IS FLOW But think of wine IT'S RED OR WHITE But think of girls! IT'S EITHER YES OR NO AND IF IT'S NO OR IF IT'S YES IT SIMPLY COULDN'T MATTER LESS But think of a race with your horse in seventh place Where the bull is uncontrolled and he charges up and wins with a roar IT'S A BORE! Life is thrilling as can be SIMPLY NOT MY CUP OF TEA It's a gay, romantic fling IF YOU LIKE THAT SORT OF THING It's intriguing IT'S FATIGUING It's a game! IT'S THE SAME DULL WORLD WHEREVER YOU GO WHATEVER PLACE YOU ARE AT THE EARTH IS ROUND BUT EVERYTHING ON IT IS FLAT Don't tell me Venice has no lure JUST A TOWN WITHOUT A SEWER The leaning tower I adore INDECISION IS A BORE But think of the thrill in a bullfight in Seville where the bull is uncontrolled and he charges at a bull matador! IT'S A BORE! Think of lunch beneath the trees! STOP THE CARRIAGE IF YOU PLEASE You mean you don't want to come THE THOUGHT OF LUNCH LEAVES ME NUMB But I implore OH, NO, UNCLE, IT'S A BORE!
