You only go around once on this big spinnin' planet of love
So, don't be wastin' my time, tell me what you're dreamin' of
We'll take a rocket to the moon and when we get that far
I'll hang your coat and hat upon a shooting star
So, let's live it up, let's live it up, let's live it up
Hang up the cat, put the dog out to dry, my, my
Roll up the bird, let the alligator wave bye bye
We'll take a slow gin to China, a train to Peru
In a rusty old steamer or a leaky canoe
Oh, let's live it up, let's live it up, let's live it up
Around the block in a hot balloon
Sounds awfully good to me
Or a seat on the wing of a jumbo jet
Flying straight to Mercury
But what's the matter with me? Baby, I've been such a fool
We'll hop on a raft and navigate around in the pool
We'll take a rocket to the moon and when we get that far
I'll hang your coat and hat upon a shooting star
So, let's live it up, let's live it up, let's live it up
Well, 'round the block in a hot balloon
Sounds awfully good to me
Or a seat on the wing of a jumbo jet
Flying straight to Mercury
What's the matter with me? Baby, I've been such a fool
We'll hop on a raft, sailing all around in the pool
We'll take a rocket to the moon and when we get that far
I'll hang your coat and hat upon a shooting star
Let's live it up, let's live it up
Don't look to me but think, baby, give it up
Let's live it up, let's live it up, let's live it up
Let's live it up
