(Verse)
I'm watching and waiting
Hello, Sam! Hello, Joe!
I'm waiting and watching
Hello, Max! Hello, Bob! Hello, Jasper!
I hope and I yearn
Hello, Bill! Hello, Phil!
Just for his return
Hello, fellas!
(Chorus)
Thanks for the present of the silver blue mink
Thanks for the plane and for the ice-skating rink
Thanks for the yacht and for the solid-gold sink
Thanks a lot, but no thanks
Thanks for the Scrabble set with platinum board
Thanks for the factory once known as Ford
Thank you for finding me the famous Lost Chord
Thanks a lot, but no thanks
For I am just a faithful la**ie
Waitin' for a faithful lad
And there's no gift, however cla**y
By which this la**ie can be had
Thanks for the banks and for the Santa Fe Line
Thanks for the darling uranium mine
But I'm a gal with only one valentine
Thanks a lot, but no thanks
Thanks for the champagne
And thanks for the state of Maine
And thanks for the autograph of John Wayne
Thanks a lot, but no thanks
Thanks for the cruise
And thanks for the oil wells that ooze
And thanks for that pair of Fred Astaire's shoes
Thanks a lot, but no thanks
For I am just a faithful la**ie
Waitin' for a faithful lad
And there's no gift, however cla**y
By which this la**ie can be had
Thanks for losin' your mind
And thanks for Fort Knox, sealed and signed
But I've got a guy who's Clifton Webb and Marlon Brando combined
Thanks a lot, but no, no thanks
