Like Love

Drop the politics and pretensions

Skip the subject of new dimensions

Let's begin about your intentions

Do you happen to like love?

Nothing lower than high-type theories

Bring 'em up and I get the wearies

So the Dodgers will blow the series

Do you happen to like love?

I happen to love love

I happen to have my mind on it

Speak to me of love

And maybe you'll find

That love is a thing that is bigger than big

Love is a thing that you happen to dig

Take your lectures and take your studies

Give 'em back to the fuddy-duddies

Let's pretend we're a pair of buddies

Who just happen to like love

Let's forget the Olympic races

Skip the stuff about foreign places

Let's be gettin' right down to cases

Do you happen to like love?

Drop the fish in the Arctic Ocean

What an oddly foolish notion

Just how basic is your emotion?

Do you happen to like love?

I happen to love love

I happen to have my mind on it

Speak to me of love

And maybe you'll find

That love is a treat that you shouldn't avoid

Might even beat a discussion of Freud

Take your lectures and goodly habits

Give 'em back to the squares and Babbitts

Let's pretend we're a pair of rabbits

Who just happen to like love
