The Long Walk Home

Down with love, the flowers and rice and shoes
Down with love, the root of all midnight blues
Down with things that give you that well known ping
Take that moon wrap it in cellophane

Down with love, let's liquidate all its friends
Moon and June and roses and rainbow's ends
Down with songs that moan about night and day
Down with love, yes, take it away, away

Away, far away
Give it back to the birds and the bees
And the Viennese

Down with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs and down with Cupid
Brother, let's stuff that dove
Down with love

Down with love let's liquidate all its friends
The moons, the Junes, the roses and rainbow's ends
Down with songs that moan about night and day
Down with love, yes, take it away, away

Far away, so very, very far away
Give it back to the birds and the bees
And especially the Viennese

Down with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs and down with Cupid
Brother, let's stuff that dove
Down with love
