A Fine Romance
Chilled Passions: Unveiling the Icy Charms of 'A Fine Romance'
Lyrics
A fine romance, with no kisses.
A fine romance without kisses.
A fine romance, my friend, this is.
A fine romance, emphasizing the positive nature of the relationship.
We should be like a couple of hot tomatoes.
Suggesting they should be passionate and lively like hot tomatoes.
But you're as cold as yesterday's mashed potatoes.
Expressing the partner's coldness and lack of warmth in the relationship.
A fine romance, you won't nestle.
Pointing out the absence of closeness or intimacy.
A fine romance, you won't wrestle.
Highlighting the lack of physical engagement or playfulness.
I've never mussed a crease in your blue serge pants.
Reflecting on never having the opportunity to affect the partner emotionally.
I never had the chance.
Expressing a missed chance to make a difference in the partner's life.
This is a fine romance.
Reiterating the irony of calling it a "fine romance" despite its shortcomings.
A fine romance, my good fellow.
Acknowledging the partner's lack of interest in romance.
You take romance. I'll take Jello.
Humorously comparing preferences, with one favoring romance and the other choosing Jello.
You calmer than the seals in the Arctic Ocean.
Describing the partner as calm and unexpressive, contrasting with the speaker's desire for emotion.
At least they flap their fins to express emotion.
Using seals in the Arctic Ocean as a metaphor for expressing emotions, highlighting the partner's emotional restraint.
A fine romance, with no quarrels,
Desiring a romance without conflicts.
With no insults, and all the morals.
Seeking a relationship without insults and with high moral standards.
You're just as hard to land as the Ile de France.
Comparing the difficulty of winning the partner's affection to the challenge of landing the Ile de France.
I never get the chance.
Reiterating the missed opportunities to connect emotionally.
This is a fine romance.
Repeating the irony of calling it a "fine romance" despite its flaws.
A fine romance, with no kisses.
Repetition of the desire for a romance without kisses.
A fine romance, my friend, this is.
Reiteration of the positive description of the relationship despite its shortcomings.
True love should have the thrills that a healthy crime has.
Expressing the belief that true love should be thrilling like a healthy crime.
We don't have half the thrills that "The March of Time" has.
Highlighting the lack of excitement and thrill in their relationship compared to "The March of Time."
A fine romance, with no clinches.
Desiring a romance without close embraces.
A fine romance, with no pinches.
Seeking a relationship without physical discomfort or annoyance.
You never give the orchids I send a glance.
Noticing the partner's lack of appreciation for the speaker's gestures, using orchids as a symbol.
No, you like cactus plants.
Highlighting the partner's preference for practical and tough things, like cactus plants.
This is a fine romance.
Repeating the ironic statement that despite the flaws, it is still considered a "fine romance."
