I always wanted to be a crooner.

I've Got You Under My Skin
Lyrics and Music by Cole Porter

I’ve got you under my skin
I’ve got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart - that you’re really a part of me
I’ve got you under my skin

I’ve tried so not to give in
I’ve said to myself this affair never will go so well
But why should I try to resist - when, baby, I know so well
That I’ve got you under my skin

I’d sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear:

"Don’t you know, you fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, wake up to reality!"
But each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
’Cause I’ve got you under my skin

I’d sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear:

"Don’t you know, you fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, wake up to reality!"
But each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
’Cause I’ve got you under my skin
Yes, I've got you under my skin

Doesn't it itch?

Why have I not yet performed this song?

Uknown.

It's a great one, though. I like Frank's rendition.

I personally like the version by James Darren (on DS9)

An album *would* be nice. Not that you'd get any money out of it...but filkers never do;-)
