Lyrics

Hello, folks
 We're into the Follies!
 First, though, folks
 We'll pause for a mo'
 No, no, folks
 You still get your jollies
 It's just I got a problem
 That I think you should know
 See, I've been very perturbed of late
 Very upset
 Very betwixt and between
 The things that I want
 I don't seem to get
 The things that I get
 You know what I mean
 I've got those
 "God-why-don't-you-love-me-oh-you-do-I'll-see-you-later" blues
 That
 "Long-as-you-ignore-me-you're-the-only-thing-that-matters" feeling
 That "If-I'm-good-enough-for-you-you're-not-good-enough"
 And "Thank-you-for-the-present-but-what's-wrong-with-It?" stuff
 Those
 "Don't-come-any-closer-'cause-you-know-how-much-I-love-you" feelings
 Those"Tell-me-that-you-love-me-oh-you-did-I-gotta-run-now" blues
 Margie
 Margie, Margie, Margie
 Margie, Margie, Margie
 She says she really loves me
 I love you!
 She says
 She says she really cares
 I care
 I care
 She says that I'm her hero
 My hero
 She says
 I'm perfect
 She swears
 You're perfect, goddamit
 She says that if we parted
 If we parted?!
 She says
 She says that she'd be sick
 Bleeeeeeh
 She says she's mine forever
 Forever!
 She says
 I gotta get outta here quick!
 Don't go! Don't go!
 I love you! I love you!
 Come back!
 I've got those
 "Whisper-how-I'm-better-than-I-think-but-what-do-you-know?" Blues
 That "Why-do-you-keep-telling-me-I-stink-when-I-adore-you?" Feeling
 That "Say-I'm-all-the-world-to-you-you're-out-of-your-mind-
 I-know-there's-someone-else-and-I-could-kiss-you-behind"
 Those "You-say-I'm-terrific-but-your-taste-was-always-rotten" feelings
 Those "Go-away-I-need-you"
 "Come-to-me-I'll-kill-you"
 "Darling-I'll-do-anything-to-keep-you-with-me-till-you-tell-me-that-you-love-me-oh-you-did-now-beat-it-will-you?" Blues

 She says she loves another
 Another!
 She says
 A fella she prefers
 Furs
 Furs
 She says that he's her idol
 Idolidolidolidol
 She says
 Ideal, she avers
 You deal, avers?
 She says that anybody
 Buddy? Bleah!
 She says
 Would suit her more than I
 Ay, ay, ay
 She says that I'm a washout
 A washout!
 She says
 I love her so much, I could die
 Get out of here!
 Oh! Oh!
 Go 'way! Go 'way!
 Ah! Ah!
 I've got those
 "God-why-don't-you-love-me-oh-you-do-I'll-see-you-later" blues
 Bla, bla, blues
 That
 "Long-as-you-ignore-me-you're-the-only-thing-that-matters" feeling
 Feeling
 That "If-I'm-good-enough-for-you-you're-not-good-enough"
 Woo!
 And "Thank-you-for-the-present-but-what's-wrong-with-it?" stuff
 Uh!
 Those
 "Don't-come-any-closer-'cause-you-know-how-much-I-love-you" feelings
 Bla, bla, blues
 Those "If-you-will-then-I-can't-
 If-you-don't-then-I-gotta-
 Give-it-to-me-I-don't-want-it-
 If-you-won't-I-gotta-have-it-
 High-low-wrong-right-
 Yes-no-black-white"
 "God-why-don't-you-love-me-oh-you-do-I'll-see-you-later" blues
