Something to Do With Spring - Noël Coward

The sun is shining where clouds have been

Maybe it’s something to do with spring!

I feel no older than seventeen

Maybe it’s something to do with spring!

A feeling I can’t express

A sort of lilt in the air

A lyrical loveliness

Seems everywhere, there!

That cow resembles a rural dean

Maybe it’s something to do with spring!

The Spring is here, dear

Oh dear, oh dear, dear!

Can’t you see

The simply agonising sheen

On every angry little tree?

You must admit it’s rather fun

To think that every single thing

That nature ever does is over done!

You see exactly what I mean;

It all looks far too clean

A badly painted scene

The grass is far too green!

Perhaps there’s something we have missed

I never could have kissed

A sentimentalist!

Still, there’s something in the atmosphere

A sort of something, dear

That makes me happy, dear

The sun is shining where clouds have been

Maybe it’s something to do with spring!

I feel no older than seventeen

Maybe it’s something to do with spring!

A feeling I can’t express

A sort of lilt in the air

A lyrical loveliness

Seems everywhere, there!

That sheep’s expression is quite obscene

Maybe it’s something to do with spring!
