Just One Of Those Things

As Dorothy Parker
Once said
To her boyfriend
Fare thee well
As Columbus
Announced
When he knew
He was bounced
It was swell
Isabel
Swell

As Abelard
Said to Eloise
Don't forget
To drop
A line to me
Please
As Juliet cried
In her
Romeo's ear
Romeo
Why not face
the fact
My dear

It was just one
Of those things
Just one of those
Crazy flings
One
Of those bells
That now
And then rings
Just one
Of those things

It was just one
Of those nights
Just one of those
Fabulous flights
A trip to the moon
On gossamer wings
Just one
Of those things

If we'd
Thought a bit
Of the end of it
When we started
Painting the town
We'd have
Been aware
That our
Love affair
Was too hot
Not to cool down

So good-bye
Dear, and amen
Here's hoping
We meet now
And then
It was great fun
But it was
Just one
Of those things

If we'd
Thought a bit
Of the end of it
When we started
Painting the town
We'd have
Been aware
That our
Love affair
Was too hot
Not
To cool down

So good-bye
Dear
And amen
Here's hoping
We meet now
And then
It was great fun
But it was
Just one
Of those things

Just one
Of those things
