Let Call The Whole Thing Off

oleh: Ella Fitzgerald Feat Louis Amstrong

Things have come to a pretty pass

Our romance is growing flat,

For you like this and the other

While I go for this and that,

Goodness knows what the end will be

Oh I don't know where I'm at

It looks as if we two will never be one

Something must be done:

You say either and I say either,

You say neither and I say neither

Either, either Neither, neither

Let's call the whole thing off.

You like potato and I like potahto

You like tomato and I like tomahto

Potato, potahto, Tomato, tomahto.

Let's call the whole thing off

But oh, if we call the whole thing off

Then we must part

And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart

So if you like pyjamas and I like pyjahmas,

I'll wear pyjamas and give up pyajahmas

For we know we need each other so we

Better call the whole thing off

Let's call the whole thing off.

You say laughter and I say larfter

You say after and I say arfter

Laughter, larfter after arfter

Let's call the whole thing off,

You like vanilla and I like vanella

You saspiralla, and I saspirella

Vanilla vanella chocolate strawberry

Let's call the whole thing off

But oh if we call the whole thing of then we must part

And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart

So if you go for oysters and I go for ersters

I'll order oysters and cancel the ersters

For we know we need each other so we

Better call the calling off off,

Let's call the whole thing off.

I say father, and you say pater,

I saw mother and you say mater

Pater, mater Uncle, auntie let's call the whole thing off.

I like bananas and you like banahnahs

I say Havana and I get Havahnah

Bananas, banahnahs Havana, Havahnah

Go your way, I'll go mine

So if I go for scallops and you go for lobsters,

So all right no contest we'll order lobseter

For we know we need each other so we

Better call the calling off off,

Let's call the whole thing off. 

lirik lagu ini saya cari karena saya kepikiran sama lagunya yang kocak. di lagu ini ada dua penyanyi yang bertengkar seoolah-seolah tiap lirik mewakili perasaan mereka. lagu ini merupakan lagu jazz yang tiba-tiba saya suka  setelah membaca novel metropop Love, Hate Hocus & Pocus. Ceritanya lagu ini di puter pas ada bagian mereka lagi berantem di mobil dan lagi denger lagu jazz. ya lagu yang mencerminkan perasaan mereka yang sedang bertengkar yang akhirnya baikkan juga karena mikirin tentang pertengkaran mereka yang gak penting-penting banget. lucu hahaha :D
