Birds do it, bees do it
Even educated fleas do it
Let`s do it, let`s fall in love
In Spain, the best upper sets do it
Lithuanians and Letts do it
Let`s do it, let`s fall in love
The Dutch in old Amsterdam do it
Not to mention the Fins
Folks in Siam do it - think of Siamese twins
Some Argentines, without means, do it
People say in Boston even beans do it
Let`s do it, let`s fall in love
Romantic sponges, they say, do it
Oysters down in oyster bay do it
Let`s do it, let`s fall in love
Cold Cape Cod clams, `gainst their wish, do it
Even lazy jellyfish, do it
Let`s do it, let`s fall in love
Electric eels I might add do it
Though it shocks em I know
Why ask if shad do it - Waiter bring me
"shad roe"
In shallow shoals English soles do it
Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it
Let`s do it, let`s fall in love

Other verses I`ve seen in print follow:
In old Japan, all the Japs do it
Up in Lapland little Laps do it
Let`s do it, let`s fall in love
The chimpanzees in the zoos do it
Some courageous kangaroos do it
Let`s do it, let`s
fall in love
I`m sure giraffes on the sly do it
Even eagles as they fly do it
Let`s do it, let`s fall
in love
Electric eels I might add do it
Though it shocks em I know
Why ask if shad do it - garcon de
"shad roe"
The world admits bears in pits do it
Even Pekingeses at the Ritz do it
Let`s do it, let`s
fall in love
The royal set sans regret did it
And they considered it fun
Marie Antoinette did it -
with or without Napoleon
