After one whole quart of brandy
Like a daisy, I'm awake
With no Bromo-Seltzer handy
I don't even shake
Men are not a new sensation
I've done pretty well I think
But this half-pint imitation
Put me...
After one whole quart of brandy Like a daisy, I'm awake With no Bromo-Seltzer handy I don't even shake
Men are not a new sensation I've done pretty well I think But this half-pint imitation Put me on the blink
I'm wild again, beguiled again A simpering, whimpering child again Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
Couldn't sleep and wouldn't sleep When love came and told me, I shouldn't sleep Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
Lost my heart, but what of it He is cold I agree He can laugh, but I love it Although the laugh's on me
I'll sing to him, each spring to him And long, for the day when I'll cling to him Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
He's a fool and don't I know it But a fool can have his charms I'm in love and don't I show it Like a babe in arms
Love's the same old sad sensation Lately I've not slept a wink Since this half-pint imitation Put me on the blink
I've sinned a lot, I'm mean a lot But I'm like sweet seventeen a lot Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
I'll sing to him, each spring to him And worship the trousers that cling to him Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
When he talks, he is seeking Words to get, off his chest Horizontally speaking, he's at his very best
Vexed again, perplexed again Thank God, I can be oversexed again Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
Wise at last, my eyes at last, Are cutting you down to your size at last Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - no more
Burned a lot, but learned a lot And now you are broke, so you earned a lot Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - no more
Couldn't eat, was dispeptic Life was so hard to bear Now my heart's antiseptic Since you moved out of there
Romance, finis. Your chance, finis. Those ants that invaded my pants, finis. Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - no more

In the play, the character is anything but impotent--he's a womanizer and a louse. The singer of this song, a jaded older woman, knows all that ("he's a fool and don't I know it") but can't help herself falling in love with him--and eventually, falling out of love with him. Impeccable version from a true legend.
I'm 18 years old now, but I loved Jazz since a pretty young age.
Although I think people say I'm weird for other reasons lol.
it is *not* weird to appreciate talent!!!
IMHO people who consider most of today's artist's music as singing are the ones who are wierd. I mean come on! Rapping is basically fast rhyming/ talking.
This isn't "close to flawless"...It IS Flawless!!! It does not get better than this. One of the great female vocal performances of all time...this lady makes the song her own.
I am actually listening for the first time to Dame Ella singing this. My Mom use to sing this song so I invariably copied my Mother's style. But, I must say she must have gotten it from Ella. I have a duet on my profile. Ella was a true Diva!
