You sons of Adam, you daughters of Eve
The time has come to take your love-torn hearts off your sleeve
Look, look about you, what, what do you see?
Love-sick, love-lorn, love-wrecked, love-worn, boo-hoomanity
There'll be no peace on Earth Until this curse
Is wiped off from this love-mapped universe
Are we mice or are we men? Can't you see the light?
Come you fellow victims lets unite
Down with love, the flowers and rice and shoes
Down with love, the root of all midnight blues
Down with things that give you that well-known pain
Take that moon and wrap it in cellophane
Down with love, let's liquidate all it's friends
Moon and June and roses and rainbows' ends
Down with songs that moan about night and day
Down with love, just take it away, away
Take it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds and the bees and the Viennese
Down with Eyes romantic and stupid
Down with signs, down with Cupid
Ruttle that stuff that duff
Down with love
Down with love
Down with love
Down, down, down with love
