I Can't Get Started
O'Day Anita Lyrics

I've flown around the world in a plane
I've traveled extensively by air across the globe

I've settled revolutions in Spain
I've been involved in resolving conflicts in Spain

And the North Pole I have charted
I've navigated and mapped out the North Pole

Still I can't get started with you
Despite my achievements, I cannot seem to make progress with you

On the golf course, I'm under par
I excel at golf, consistently scoring below average

Metro Goldwyn have asked me to star
The film company Metro Goldwyn Mayer has invited me to be a lead actor in one of their movies

I've got a house, a showplace
I own a magnificent home, a place to entertain and showcase my accomplishments

Still I can't get no place with you
Despite my success and possessions, I am not able to make progress with you

'Cause you're so supreme
Because you are the pinnacle of excellence

Lyrics I write of you, I dream
I constantly dream of writing lyrics about you

Dream day and night of you
You are constantly on my mind, even in my dreams

And I scheme just for the sight of you
I plan and strategize just for the chance to see you

Baby, what good does it do?
But it seems to be futile, and leaves me wondering if it is worth the effort.

I've been consulted by Franklin D
I've been sought after to provide guidance to Franklin D. Roosevelt, the former President of the United States

Greta Garbo has had me to tea
I have had the pleasure of having tea with the famous actress, Greta Garbo

Still I'm broken-hearted
However, my heart is still shattered

'Cause I can't get started with you
Because I cannot make progress with you, and the thought still causes me great pain.
