What Chance Have I With Love 1940 Berlin

Love is beautiful,
love is swell,
Love is as sweet as a nut.
Love is grander
than tongue can tell.
Love is remarkable.
But

look at what it did to Anthony.
it made a fool out of Anthony.
If love could do that to Anthony,
what chance have I with love?
Look at what it did to Romeo.
It dealt poor Romey an awful blow.
If love could do that to Romeo,
what chance have I with love?
Look what it did to Sampson
'til he lost his hair he was brave.
If a haircut could weaken Sampson,
they could murder me
with a shave.
Look at what it did to Bonaparte,
he lost his head
when he lost his heart.
If he kicked over the apple cart
what chance have I
an ordinairy guy.
what chance have I with love?

Look at what it did to Anthony.
it made a fool out of Anthony.
If love could do that to Anthony,
what chance have I with love?
Look at what it did to Romeo.
It dealt poor Romey an awful blow.
If love could do that to Romeo,
what chance have I with love?
Look what it did to Sampson
'til he lost his hair he was brave.
If a haircut could weaken Sampson,
they could murder me
with a shave.
Look at what it did to Bonaparte,
he lost his head
when he lost his heart.
If he kicked over the apple cart
what chance have I
an ordinairy guy.
what chance have I with love?
