There's an old Italian phrase
It's an old Italian craze
Every little bambina
Says it her very first day
Every sweet signorina
Says it the very same way

These funny little words
Don't really mean a thing
It's just a phrase that nowadays
Italians love to sing

Cosi cosa!
It's a wonderful word, tra-la-la-la
If anyone asks you how you are
It's proper to say
Cosi Cosa!
Cosi Cosa!
If a lady should ask you if you care
You don't have to start a love affair
Say "Cosi Cosa!"

Does it mean yes? No!
Does it mean no?
Well, yes and no

Cosi Cosa
Get together and sing, tra-la-la-la
It's easy this way, so start today
And laugh and sing
Cosi Cosa
Cosi Cosa

Does it mean yes? No!

Well, yes and no

It's easy this way, so start today
And laugh and sing
