I'm dancing on the White House lawn

Sipping tea by the Taj Mahal at dawn

Hanging round the gardens of Babylon

Minnie Mouse has got it all sewn up

She gets more fan mail than the Pope

She takes the mickey out of all my phobias

Like signing cheques to ward off double pneumonia

Life is a minestrone served up with parmesan cheese

Death is a cold lasagne suspended in deep freeze

I'm leaning on the Tower of Pisa

Had an eyeful of the tower in France

I'm hanging round the gardens of Madison

The seat of learning and the flush of success

Relieves a constipated mind

I'm like a gourmet in a skid row diner

A fitting menu for a dilettante

Life is a minestrone served up with parmesan cheese

Death is a cold lasagne suspended in deep freeze

Love is a fire of flaming brandy upon a crepe suzette

Let's get this romance cooking honey but let us not forget

Life is a minestrone served up with parmesan cheese

Death is a cold lasagne suspended in deep freeze

Life is a minestrone served up with parmesan cheese

Death is a cold lasagne suspended in deep freeze

Love is a fire of flaming brandy upon a crepe suzette

Let's get this romance cooking honey but let us not forget

Life is a minestrone served up with parmesan cheese

Death is a cold lasagne suspended in deep freeze

Life is a minestrone served up with parmesan cheese

Death is a cold lasagne suspended in deep freeze
