I Can’t Get Started Songtext
von Bunny Berigan

I′m a glum one, it's explainable, I met someone unattainable
Life′s a bore, the world is my oyster no more
All the papers where I lead the news with my capers, now will spread the news
Superman turns out to be flash-in-the-pan


I've been around the world in a plane, designed the latest IBM brain
But lately I'm so downhearted, ′cause I can′t get started with you
In Cincinnati or in Rangoon, I simply smile and all the gals swoon
Their whims I've more than just charted, but I can′t get started with you

O tell me why am I no kick to you, I who'd always stick to you
Fly through thin and thick to you, tell me why I′m taboo
Each time I chanced to see Franklin D., he always said, Hi buddy to me
And with queens I've a la carted, but I can′t get started with you
