Just One Of Those Things 1935 'Jubilee'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 24 May 2002

As Dorothy Parker once said
to her boy friend,
"Fare thee well,"
As Columbus announced
when he knew he was bounced,
"It was swell, Isabelle, swell,"
As Abelard said to Eloise,
"Don't forget to drop a line to me, please,"
As Juliet cried in her Romeo's ear,
"Romeo, why not face the fact, my dear?"

It was just one of those things,
just one of those crazy flings.
One of those bells that now and then rings,
just one of those things.
It was just one of those nights,
just one of those fabulous flights,
a trip to the moon on gossamer wings,
just one of those things.
If we'd thought a bit of the end of it
when we started painting the town,
we'd have been aware
that our love affair
was too hot not to cool down.
So goodbye, dear, and Amen,
Here's hoping we meet now and then,
It was great fun,
but it was just one of those things.

It was just one of those things,
just one of those crazy flings.
One of those bells that now and then rings,
just one of those things.
It was just one of those nights,
just one of those fabulous flights,
a trip to the moon on gossamer wings,
just one of those things.
If we'd thought a bit of the end of it
when we started painting the town,
we'd have been aware
that our love affair
was too hot not to cool down.
So goodbye, dear, and Amen,
Here's hoping we meet now and then,
It was great fun,
but it was just one of those things.
