Wouldn't it be nice if we could fall in love
Just like other people do?
Wouldn't it be nice if we could fall in love?
I could, could you?
In a magazine it seems to me I've seen
A streamline bangalow for two
Wouldn't it be fine to make it yours and mine?
I could, could you?
I asked my dad and mother, they said yes
My sister and my brother, they said yes
Now if a lot of people do say yes
Why can't you say yes?
Think of shoes and rice, a trip to paradise
Then that fascinate all blue
Wouldn't it be nice if we could fall in love?
I could, could you?
Now, wouldn't it be nice?
(Michael O'Shea) If we could fall in love
Just like other people do?
(Vivian) Ah, wouldn't it be nice if we could fall in love?
I could, could you?
Now, in a magazine it seems to me I've seen
A streamline bangalow for two
(Michael) Oh, and baby, wouldn't it be fine
To make it yours and mine?
(Vivian) I could
(Michael) Could you?
Vivian) I asked my dad and mother, they said yes
(Michael) Well, how about your brother?
(Vivian) He said yes, even my sister Sue said yes
(Michael) Now why can't you say yes?
(Vivian) Think of shoes and rice, a trip to paradise
Then that fascinate all blue
(Michael) I'm thinking
(Michael) Wouldn't it be nice?
(Vivian) If we could fall in love? I could!
(Michael) Could you?
(Phil Silvers) And wouldn't it be zoom too?
And really be all loon too if we'd like chow like people do?
(Carmen Miranda) I dig you, com muitos cruzeiros
E um bom Cadillac talvez eu possa te querer
(Phil) I could!
(Carmen) Oh, could you?
(Vivian, Michael, Carmen, Phil)
In a magazine it seems to me I've seen
(Phil) A streamline bangalow for two
(Vivian) Wouldn't it be fine to make it yours and mine?
(Phil) I could! Baby, could you?
(Vivian) I asked my dad and my mother, they said yes
(Michael) How about your broken down brother?
(Vivian) Oh, he said... Huh?
(Phil) Even Chiquita "she's agree"
(Carmen) Aha, aha, I say "si" , "si"
(Vivian, Michael, Carmen, Phil)
Think of shoes and rice, a trip to paradise
Then that fascinate all blue
Woulnd't it be nice if we could fall in love?
Wouldn't it be fine if I was yours and you were mine?
If we could fall in love!
