[Verse 1]
You sons of Adam, you daughters of Eve
The time has come to take your love-torn hearts off your sleeve
Look, look about you
What, what do you see
Lovesick, lovelorn, love-wrecked, love-worn, humanity
[Verse 2]
There'll be no peace on earth until this curse
Is wiped from this love-mad universe
Are we mice or men
Can you see the light
Come you fellow victims, let's unite
[Verse 3]
Down with love, the flowers and rice and shoes
Down with love, the root of all midnight bluеs
Down with things that give you that well-known pain
Take that moon and wrap it in cеllophane
[Verse 4]
Down with love, let's liquidate all its friends
Moon and June and roses and rainbows' ends
Down with songs that moan about night and day
Down with love, yes take it away, away
[Bridge]
Take it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds and bees and the Viennese
[Verse 6]
Down with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs, down with Cupid
Brother, let's stuff that dove
Down with love
Down with love
Down, down, down with love
[Bridge]
Take it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds and bees and the Viennese
[Verse 7]
Down with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs, down with Cupid
Brother, let's stuff that dove
Down with love
Down with love
Down, down, down with love
Down With Love was written by E. Y. Harburg & Harold Arlen.
