What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I used to dream that I would discover
2
The perfect lover someday,
3
I knew I'd recognize him if ever
4
He came 'round my way.
5
I always used to fancy then
6
He'd be one of the God-like kind of men
7
With a giant brain and a noble head
8
Like the heroes bold
9
In the books I've read.
10
But along came Bill
11
Who's quite the opposite of all
12
The men in storybooks
13
In grace and looks
14
I know that Apollo
15
Would beat him
16
All hollow
17
And I can't explain,
18
It's surely not his brain
19
That makes me thrill
20
I love him because he's wonderful,
21
Because he's just my Bill.
22
He can't play golf or tennis or polo,
23
Or sing a solo, or row.
24
He isn't half as handsome
25
As dozens of men that I know.
26
He isn't tall or straight or slim
27
And he dresses far worse than Ted or Jim.
28
And I can't explain why he should be
29
Just the one, one man in the world for me.
30
He's just my Bill, an ordinary man,
31
He hasn't got a thing that I can brag about.
32
And yet to be
33
Upon his knee
34
So comfy and roomy
35
Seems natural to me.
36
Oh, I can't explain,
37
It's surely not his brain
38
That makes me thrill
39
I love him because he's, I don't know
40
Because he's just my Bill.
