Ella Fitzgerald — Evrything Ive Got

VERSE 1 Don't stamp your foot at me It's impolite To stamp your foot at me Is not quite right At man's ingratitude A woman winks But such an attitude just stinks REFRAIN 1 I have eyes for you to give you dirty looks I have words that do not come from children's books There's a trick with a knife I'm learning to do And ev'rything I've got belongs to you I've a powerful anesthesia in my fist And the perfect wrist to give your neck atwist There are hammerlock holds I've mastered a few And ev'rything I've got belongs to you Share for share, share alike You get struck each time I strike You for me- me for me- I'll give you plenty of nothing I'm not yours for better but for worse And I've learned to give the well-known witches' curse I've a terrible tongue, a temper for two And ev'rything I've got belongs to you VERSE 2 Don't raise your voice at me That's very rude To raise your voice at me Is rather crude It's wrong essentially when woman yells And confidentially, it smells REFRAIN 2 I'll converse with you on politics at length I'll protect you with my superhuman strength If you're ever attacked I'll scream and say , "Boo! And ev'rything I've got belongs to you I will never stray from home, I'll just stay put 'Cause I've got a brand-new thing called athlete' s foot I'm a victim of colds, anemia, too And ev'rything I've got belongs to you Off to bed we will creep Then we'll sleep and sleep and sleep Till the birds start to peep I'll give you plenty of nothing I'll be yours forever and a day If the first good breeze does not blow me away You're enough for one man, that's why I'll be true And ev'rything I've got belongs to you ENCORE You may have some things that I can't use at all When I look at you, your manly gifts are small I've a wonderful way of saying adieu And ev'rything I've got belongs to you You won't know how good I am until you try And you'll let my well of loneliness run dry I've a marvelous way of telling you no And ev'rything I've got belongs to you And ev'rything you want belongs to me! And ev' rything you need belongs to me! REPRISE VERSE Life has no shape or form And no design It isn't life without That fool of mine I used to gad about With any chap And now I'm sad about my sap REFRAIN He's a living thing that isn't quite alive He has brains enough for any child of five Oh, he isn't too rich in vigor and vim But ev'rything I've got belongs to him He's a naughty brat that can't be left alone He has eyes for ev'ry skirt except my own Even under a tree, he grabs for the limb But ev'rything I've got belongs to him Something beats in his chest But it's just a pump at best I'm for him, he's for him He gives me plenty of nothing When I see that funny face, I know Something scared his mother twenty years ago But I'll never let go, he'll never be free! Till ev'rything he's got belongs to me! CODA And ev'rything I've got belongs to him! And ev'rything I've got belongs to us!
