Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off Lyrics

You say either and I say either
You say neither and I say neither
Either, either, neither, neither
Let's call the whole thing off

You say tomato, I say tomato
You eat potato and I eat potato
Tomato, tomato, potato, potato
Let's call the whole thing off

But oh, if we call the whole thing off then we must part
And oh, if we ever part then that might break my heart

So, if you wear pajamas and I wear pajamas
I'll wear pajamas and give up pajamas
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the calling off, off
Oh, let's call the whole thing off

You say after and I say after
You say laughter and I say laughter
After, after, laughter, laughter
Let's call the whole thing off

You say Havana and I say Havana
You eat banana and I eat banana
Havana, havana, banana, banana
Let's call the whole thing off

But oh, if we call the whole thing off then we must part
And oh, if we ever part then that might break my heart

So, if you say oysters and I say oysters
I'll eat oysters and give up oysters
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the calling off, off
Oh, let's call the whole thing off
