When I'm In The Mood For Love, You're In The Mood For Herring (I'm In The Mood For Love) Lyrics

Allan Sherman When I'm In The Mood For Love, You're In The Mood For Herring (I'm In The Mood For Love)

When I'm in the mood for love
You're in the mood for herring
When I'm in the mood for herring
You're in the mood for love

Love is a fragile thing
Delicate and elusive
Herring is not conducive
When I'm in the mood for love

Why stop to think of herring?
Let's let our passion flower
Then, darling, if you're still caring
You can have herring, in half an hour

(That's the bitter laughter of married people that you're hearing now.)

Herring can always wait
Herring does not mind waiting
Meanwhile, I'm marinating!
I'm in the mood for love!
