Ella Fitzgerald - Let's Call The Whole Thing Off Lyrics
Things have come to a pretty pass
Our romance is growing flat,
For you like this and the other
While I go for this and that,
Oh I don't know where I'm at
It looks as if we two will never be one
Something must be done:
You say either and I say either,
You say neither and I say neither
Either, either Neither, neither
Let's call the whole thing off.
You like potato and I like potahto
Potato, potahto, Tomato, tomahto.
Let's call the whole thing off
But oh, if we call the whole thing off
Then we must part
And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart
So if you like pyjamas and I like pyjahmas,
I'll wear pyjamas and give up pyajahmas
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the whole thing off
Let's call the whole thing off.
You say laughter and I say larfter
You say after and I say arfter
Laughter, larfter after arfter
Let's call the whole thing off,
You like vanilla and I like vanella
You saspiralla, and I saspirella
Vanilla vanella chocolate strawberry
Let's call the whole thing off
But oh if we call the whole thing of then we must part
And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart
So if you go for oysters and I go for ersters
I'll order oysters and cancel the ersters
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the calling off off,
Let's call the whole thing off.
I say father, and you say pater,
I saw mother and you say mater
Pater, mater Uncle, auntie let's call the whole thing off.
I like bananas and you like banahnahs
I say Havana and I get Havahnah
Bananas, banahnahs Havana, Havahnah
Go your way, I'll go mine
So if I go for scallops and you go for lobsters,
So all right no contest we'll order lobster
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the calling off off,
Let's call the whole thing off.

I love this song
I first heard this while at a good gal friend’s house. We laughed about how ridiculous the lyrics were. I spent about 2 days straight with her and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Good times.
I Needs me a Lady I can be this happy with

One of the best Jazz songs on Earth!!!
Bellissimo duetto.
Things have come to a pretty pass
Our romance is growing flat
'Cause you like this and the other
While I go for this and that
Goodness knows what the end will be
Oh, I don't know where I'm at
It looks as if we two will never be one
Something must be done
You say either and I say eyether
You say neether and I say nyther
Eether, eyether, neether, nyther
Let's call the whole thing off!
You like potato and I like potahto
You like tomato and I like tomahto
Potato, potahto, tomato, tomahto!
Let's call the whole thing off!
But oh! If we call the whole thing off
Then we must part
And oh! If we ever part
Then that might break my heart!
So, if you like pajamas and I like pajahmas
I'll wear pajamas and give up pajahmas
For we know we need each other
So we better call the calling off off
Let's call the whole thing off!
You say laughter and I say lawfter
You say after and I say awfter
Laughter, lawfter, after, awfter
Let's call the whole thing off!
You like vanilla and I like vanella
You eat banana and I eat banahna
Vanilla, vanella, banana, banahna!
Let's call the whole thing off!
But oh! If we call the whole thing off
Then we must part
And oh! If we ever part
Then that might break my heart!
So, if you like oysters and I like ersters
I'll take oysters and give up ersters
For we know we need each other
So we better call the calling off off!
Let's call the whole thing off!
The lyrics of this song must be a deligh to show and explain to an english languaje beginner student.

Best kind of people
Just as an experiment listen this at 1.25 speed🎵
I love this music
Why do I just keep imagining this as two people on the Internet having a heated argument about how to pronounce words?
For me, this is 'bout a British and a north-american pronunciation
My old soul brought me here. I'm 14 and this is better than any of that mumble rap bullshit my generation is supposed to be listening to.
me puse a leer comentarios y solo encuentro cosas de harry potter, pero solo yo me fije que el nombre del tipo es igual al personaje de fullmetal alchemist?
Sometimes people argues for little fucking difference, a really great song
Aries Spears' "drink champs" interview brought me here.
JIT🅾️MATE
"For we know we need each other so we..." I love that line so much. So well written and so sweet it brings tears to my eyes everytime I hear it.
This is wonderful
Classic jazzy version .... nice!!! Hope u can listen to my piano version of this song ... thank you!

I'm so happy I stumbled upon this song... I love Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong together, and this is definitely my favorite song from one of the collaborations between them.
Who played piano on this?
I'm here because Ella Sings Gershwin (Vol. 1 AND 2) Great stuff. If you like the classics, check out Cole Porter too.
