let s do it let s fall in love

Ella Fitzgerald

Birds do it, bees do it
Even educated fleas do it
Let s do it, let s fall in love

In Spain, the best upper sets do it

Lithuanians and Letts do it
Let s do it, let s fall in love

The Dutch in old Amsterdam do it
Not to mention the Fins
Folks in Siam do it - think of Siamese twins

Some Argentines, without means, do it
People say in Boston even beans do it
Let s do it, let s fall in love

Romantic sponges, they say, do it
Oysters down in oyster bay do it
Let s do it, let s fall in love

Cold Cape Cod clams, gainst their wish, do it
Even lazy jellyfish, do it
Let s do it, let s fall in love

Electric eels I might add do it
Though it shocks em I know
Why ask if shad do it - Waiter bring me
shad roe

In shallow shoals English soles do it
Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it
Let s do it, let s fall in love

In old Japan, all the Japs do it
Up in Lapland little Laps do it
Let s do it, let s fall in love

The chimpanzees in the zoos do it
Some courageous kangaroos do it
Let s do it, let s
fall in love

I m sure giraffes on the sly do it
Even eagles as they fly do it
Let s do it, let s fall
in love

Electric eels I might add do it
Though it shocks em I know
Why ask if shad do it - garcon de
shad roe

The world admits bears in pits do it
Even Pekingeses at the Ritz do it
Let s do it, let s
fall in love

The royal set sans regret did it
And they considered it fun
Marie Antoinette did it -
