There are those who manage such a charmed existence
|
Lucky ladies who've been fortunate since birth
|
All the major domos know them
|
And obligingly will show them
|
Straight to the only table left on earth
|
These are people for whom life is not a challenge
|
They've got savoir faire that oozes pedigree
|
They're the women men will die for
|
And millionaires will buy for
|
But I fear these ladies aren't me...
|
|
The cake life served me
|
is upside down
|
The soup du jour I'm having spills
|
On my best gown
|
I get all wet
|
Each time I surf the net, yet
|
Baby, don't ask me why
|
|
It always rains on
|
My one day off
|
And my blind date turned into
|
Boris Karloff
|
It's like a curse
|
I go from bad to worse but
|
Baby, don't ask me why
|
|
Funny...
|
Down at the IRS
|
I get the guy who never says "yes"
|
God, what a mess
|
It's all so taxing
|
Maybe...
|
Life is a cosmic gaff
|
Fashioning punch lines into a laugh
|
Too cute by half
|
I don't know, don't ask me And then I saw you
|
That rainy day...
|
Drenched to the bone and all alone
|
What can I say
|
When you are near
|
My motor hits high gear, dear
|
No clue, don't ask me why
|
|
Maybe...
|
This is the perfect deal
|
This time the schmo has found her schlemiel
|
Now maybe we'll
|
Find that happy ending
|
Maybe...
|
You are the missing cog
|
|
Maybe the princess lost in the fog
|
Kiss the one frog
|
Who was worth befriending
|
|
The world will go on
|
Much as before
|
I'll lose the keys right after
|
You lock the door
|
It seems to me
|
That we were meant to be, see
|
We've got compatibility
|
You're the pie and I'm the face
|
You're the shoe tripping on my lace
|
You're the yin and I'm the yang
|
You're the lemon and I'm meringue
|
You're the fourth of my July
|
Together we'll blow sky high, and
|
we'll never say good-bye...but
|
Baby, don't ask me why
|
|
Why don't elephants fly?
|
Why are high heels so high?
|
Why is Ru Paul a guy?
|
Baby, don't ask me why
|
