Rocketships in every hue Skies in green and grass in blue Deny you all these things If I could tell you no Diamonds, rubies, pearls, and stones Fall in Paris, spring in Rome You ask for all these things And I can't tell you no People say that I'm the biggest fool that they've ever seen They tell me I should be a man but what does it mean? To be a man without someone to share a dream and a thrill To be a man with someone as lovely as you (ahhhh) Be my girl, I'll be your boy Please now baby don't play coy No need to be ashamed With all the fancy things you've gained Well, to me it's all the same You can't take it with you when you die... I Take your picture, take my hand Don't care if they don't understand You ask for all these things, but I can't tell you no But I can't tell you no If I could tell you no
