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 them 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
Mosquitoes, heaven forbid, do it
So does every katydid do it, Let’s do it. Let’s fall in love
Dragonflies in the reeds do it
Sentimental centipedes do it, Let’s do it. let’s fall in love
The most refined ladybugs do it
When a gentleman calls
Moths in your rugs do it. What's the use of moth balls?
The locusts up in the trees do it
Even over-educated fleas 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
Heavy hippopotami do it, Let’s do it. let’s fall in love
Old sloths who hang down from twigs do it
Though the effort is great
Sweet guinea pigs do it; buy a couple and wait
The world admits bears in pits do it,
Even Pekingeses in the Ritz do it,
Let’s do it. Let’s fall in love.
The nightingales in the dark do it
Larks crazy for a lark do it, Let’s do it. Let’s fall in love
Canaries caged in the house do it
When they’re out of season grouse do it
Let’s do it. Let’s fall in love.
The most sedate barnyard fowls do it when a chanticleer cries.
Highbrowed old owls do it; they’re supposed to be wise
Penguins in flocks on the rocks do it
Even little cuckoos in their clocks do it
Let’s do it. Let’s fall in love
[Instrumental]
The royal set sans regret did it
And they considered it fun
Marie antoinette did it - with or without napoleon
Parliament pleasure bent did it
Mam'selles every time they're short of rent did it
Let’s do it. Let’s fall in love
