You're Slightly Less Then Wonderful - Fats Waller

You’re only slightly less than wonderful

Your body boarders on the murderous

I think I’m on the brink of buying you mink

To drag on the ground

Or wrap around you when you slink

Within me elemental forces surge

Are you allergic to the oggy urge?

Must I with deep regret

Let etiquette guide me as yet

And say to you politely

Dear, you’re only slightly less than wonderful

Yes, less than wonderful
