Song lyrics to Kiss Me Kate by Cole Porter

FRED:
So, kiss me, Kate, thou lovely loon,
‘Ere we start on our honeymoon.
So kiss me, Kate, darling devil devine,
For now thou shall ever be mine.

LILLI:
I’ll never be thine!

FRED and CHORUS:
So, kiss me, Kate, [KATE: NO!] thou lovely loon, [KATE: NO!]
‘Ere we start [KATE: Nay!] on our honeymoon. [KATE: Away!]
So kiss me, Kate, darling devil devine,

LILLI:
Kindly drop dead!

FRED:
For now thou shall ever be

LILLI:
Now I shall never be

Now thou shall ever be

Now thou shall never be

You swine!

Kiss him Kate, kiss him,
Kiss him Kate, kiss him,
Kiss him Kate, kiss him,
Kiss him Kate, kiss him,
Kiss him Kate, Kate him Kate, Kiss him Kate

Ha! [raises his fist in triumph]
