SOMETHIN’ STUPID
By C. Carson Parks
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
Refrain
I KNOW I STAND IN LINE
UNTIL YOU THINK YOU HAVE THE TIME
TO SPEND AN EVENIN’ WITH ME,
AND, IF WE GO SOME PLACE TO DANCE,
I KNOW THAT THERE’S A CHANCE
YOU WON’T BE LEAVIN’ WITH ME,
THEN, AFTERWARDS, WE DROP INTO
A QUIET LITTLE PLACE AND HAVE A DRINK OR TWO,
AND THEN I GO AND SPOIL IT ALL
BY SAYIN’ SOMETHIN’ STUPID LIKE “I LOVE YOU!”
I CAN SEE IT IN YOUR EYES THAT YOU DESPISE
THE SAME OLD LINES YOU HEARD THE NIGHT BEFORE,
AND, THOUGH IT’S JUST A LINE TO YOU, FOR ME IT’S TRUE
AND NEVER SEEMED SO RIGHT BEFORE,
I PRACTICE EV’RY DAY
TO FIND SOME CLEVER LINES TO SAY
TO MAKE THE MEANING COME THROUGH,
BUT THEN I THINK I’LL WAIT
UNTIL THE EVENIN’ GETS LATE
AND I’M ALONE WITH YOU,
THE TIME IS RIGHT, YOUR PERFUME FILLS
MY HEAD, THE STARS GET RED AND OH, THE NIGHT IS SO BLUE,
AND THEN I GO AND SPOIL IT ALL
BY SAYIN’ SOMETHIN’ STUPID LIKE “I LOVE YOU!”
(Repeat Refrain)
Drop me an "E" any time.
