Down with love

Down with love the flowers and rice and shoes 
Down with love the root of all midnight blues 
Down with things that give you that well-known pain  
Take that moon wrap it in cellophane.

Down with love let's liquidate all its friends 
The moons, the Junes, the roses and rainbow's ends 
Down with songs that moan about night and day 
Down with love yes take it away … away.

Away …  
Far away …  
Give it back to the birds and the bees and especially the Viennese. 

Down with eyes romantic and stupid 
Down with sighs and down with cupid 
Brother … let's stuff that dove 
Down with love.

Down with love let's liquidate all its friends 
The moons the Junes the roses and rainbow's ends 
Down with songs that moan about night and day 
Down with love yes take it away, away.

Far away … 
So very, very far away …  
Give it back to the birds and the bees and especially the Viennese.

Down with eyes romantic and stupid 
Down with sighs and down with cupid 
Brother … let's stuff that dove 
Down with love.
