Ron Rifkin feat. Mary Louise Wilson - It Couldn't Please Me More Lyrics

Lyrics It Couldn't Please Me More - Ron Rifkin feat. Mary Louise Wilson



Herr Schultz, can I believe what I see?
But this is too much to accept
It's so rare, so costly, so luxurious
If you brought me diamonds
If you brought me pearls
If you brought me roses
Like some other gents
Might bring to other girls
It couldn't please me more
Than the gift I see
A pineapple for me
If in your emotion
You begin to sway
Went to get some air
Or grabbed a chair
To keep from fainting dead away
It couldn't please me more
Than to see you cling
To the pineapple I bring
Ah, I can hear Hawaiian breezes blow
Ah, it's from California
Even so
How am I to thank you?
Kindly let it pass
Would you like a slice?
That might be nice
But frankly, it would give me gas
Then we shall leave it here
Not to eat, but see
A pineapple
For me
From me
Ah
But you must not bring me any more pineapples
Do you hear? It is not proper
It is a gift a young man would bring to his lady-love
It makes me blush
But there is no one, no one in all of Berlin who is more deserving
If I could, I would fill your entire room with pineapples
A pineapple
For you
From you
Ah
Ah
I think I will lie down for a few moments
My head is spinning
Fraulein Schneider, good evening
Good evening, Herr Schultz
I am overwhelmed
