When I'm in the Mood for Love (You're in the Mood for Herring) - Allan Sherman

When I’m in the mood for love,\nYou’re in the mood for herring.\nWhen I’m in the mood for herring,\nYou’re in the mood for love.\nLove is a fragile thing,\nDelicate and elusive.\nHerring is not conducive\nWhen I’m in the mood for love.\nWhy stop to think of herring?\nLet’s let our passion flower.\nThen, darling, if you’re still caring,\nYou can have herring, in half an hour.\n(That's the bitter laughter of married people that you’re hearing now.)\nHerring can always wait.\nHerring does not mind waiting.\nMeanwhile, I’m marinating!\nI’m in the mood for love!
