I Get a Kick Out of You
Intoxicating Joys: Unveiling the Allure Beyond Champagne and Cocaine
Lyrics
My story is much too sad to be told
My life experiences are too sorrowful to share openly.
But practically ev'rything leaves me totally cold
Almost everything fails to evoke any emotional response from me.
The only exception I know is the case
However, there is one exception I can point out.
When I'm out on a quiet spree
When I am engaged in a calm and leisurely activity.
Fighting vainly the old ennui
Fighting against the feeling of boredom or dissatisfaction.
And I suddenly turn and see
And suddenly, I turn and encounter.
Your fabulous face
Your exceptionally attractive face.
I get no kick from champagne
I don't find enjoyment or excitement from champagne.
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
Alcohol in general does not excite or thrill me.
So tell me why should it be true
So, why is it true that I find pleasure in you?
That I get a kick out of you
Despite the lack of enthusiasm for other substances.
Some get a kick from cocaine**
Some people find pleasure in cocaine.
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
I'm confident that even a single sniff of it would bore me.
That would bore me terrific'ly too
It would be incredibly uninteresting to me.
Yet I get a kick out of you
Yet, I find enjoyment in being with you.
I get a kick ev'ry time I see
Every time I see you, I experience a thrill.
You're standing there before me
When you are present in front of me.
I get a kick though it's clear to see
I feel a thrill, even though it's evident that.
You obviously do not adore me
You don't seem to have affection for me.
I get no kick in a plane
I don't find pleasure when traveling in a plane.
Flying too high with some gal/guy in the sky
Flying at high altitudes with someone in the sky.
Is my idea of nothing to do
Is my idea of having nothing to do or enjoy.
But I get a kick out of you
But I find joy and excitement in you.
