Songtexte Fascinating Rhythm - Fred Astaire feat. Adele Astaire & George Gershwin

There's a little rhythm, rhythm, rhythm
That pitter-pats through my brain
So darn persistent the day isn't distant
But it'll drive me insane
Comes in the morning without any warning
And hangs around me all day
Some day I'll sneak up to it
Some day I'll speak up to it
I hope it listens when I say
Fascinating rhythm you've got me on the go
Fascinating rhythm I'm all a-quiver
What a mess you're making
The neighbors want to know
Why I'm always shaking just like a flivver
Each morning I get up with the sun
Start a-hopping never stopping
To find at night no work has been done
I know that once it didn't matter
But now you're doing wrong
When you start to patter I'm so unhappy
Won't you take a day off
Decide to run along
Somewhere far away off and make it snappy
Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be
Fascinating rhythm you've got to stop picking on me
Fascinating rhythm I'm all a-quiver
Why I'm always shaking just like a flivver
Each morning I get up with the sun
To find at night no work has been done
I know that once it didn't matter
But now you're doing wrong
When you start to patter I'm so unhappy
Won't you take a day off
Decide to run along
Somewhere far away off and make it snappy
Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be
Fascinating rhythm you've got to stop picking on me
