Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
You say either, and I say either
You neither and I say neither
Either, either, neither, neither
Let's call the whole thing off
[Verse 4]
You like potato, I like potato
You like tomato and I like tomato
Potato, potato, tomato, tomato
Let's call the whole thing off
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
So if you like pajamas and I like pajamas
I'll wear pajamas and give up pajamas
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the calling off, off
Let's call the whole thing off
[Verse 7]
Now, you say laughter and I say laughter
You say after and I say after
Laughter, laughter, after, after
Ah, let's call the whole thing off
[Verse 8]
Now you like vanilla and I like vanilla
You sarsaparilla and I sarsaparilla
Vanilla, vanilla, chocolate, strawberry
Ah, let's call the whole thing off
[Verse 9]
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
[Verse 10]
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
Oh, let' call the whole thing off
Let's call the whole thing off
