Why speak of money when there's love, love, love?
Loveliest of your gender
You're just the type that we keep dreaming of
So sweetly tender
We must surrender
There's no one like you back in Copenhagen
London or Paree
So why speak of money when there's love, love, love?
Love is the thing for we
Why speak of money when there's love, love, love?
Handsomest of your gender
You're just the type that we keep dreaming of
Virile but tender
We must surrender
There's no one like you back in Cincinnati
Troy or Kankakee
So why speak of money when there's love, love, love?
Love is the thing for we
Stop!
This foolishness must stop
Or else I'll call a cop
Our money is at stake and we'll protect it
The Army wants to say
That you had better pay
And you are designated to collect it
Did you hear that? Pay!
No comprenez, no capish, no versteh
That's our theme song when you're wanting us to pay
Every time you mention lucre
We must give you this rebuker
No comprenez, no capish, no versteh
What happens if we insist on the money?
It means war!
But how can you have a war if we don't lend you the money?
What?
You mean to say you would not lend us the money to fight you?
Certainly!
*Hiss*
Things have come to a pretty pass
When ten nations won't pay what they owe
Well, nine nations
Nine nations!
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine—
Say! Can you boys play baseball?
You mean the great American pastime?
Yes
No, but we're willing to try
Great!
We'll have a ball game between the American Blue Shirts
And the League of Nations for the war debts
Double or nothing
Hooray!
Ah, but suppose we lose?
Well, suppose you do lose?
Oh, if we lose, we insist on another conference
Do we get it?
Yes, sir
We'll even pay your expenses over
It's a game!
Play ball!
Who's the greatest leader
That the world has ever known?
Napoleon?
Wrong!
Wintergreen!
Right!
And who's the greatest statesman
One who'll always stand alone?
Disraeli!
Wrong!
Wintergreen!
Right!
Who's the laddie
Has something on the ball?
Who's the daddy
The daddy of them all?
Who is always great or lousy
Nothing in between?
Who's the man you mean?
Nobody else
Oh, nobody else
Oh, nobody delse
Oh, nobody, nobody
Nobody else but Wintergreen!
