I tell myself,
what's done is done I tell myself, don't be a fool
Play the field, have a lot of fun
It's easy when you play it cool
I tell myself, don't be a chump,
who cares, let him stay away
That's when the phone rings, and I jump,
and as I grab the phone I pray
Let it please be him, oh dear
God, it must be him, it must be him,
or I shall die, or I shall die.
Oh, hello, hello, my dear
God
It must be
Him, but it's not
Him
An d then I die,
that's when I die
After a while,
I myself again I pick the pieces off the floor
Put my heart on the shelf again,
He'll never hurt me anymore.
I'm not a puppet on a string,
I'll find somebody new someday.
That's when the phone begins to ring,
And once again I start to pray.
Oh, let it please be
Him.
Oh, dear
God, it must be
Him.
It must be
Him, or I shall die.
Or I shall die.
Oh, hello, hello, my dear
God
It must be
Him, but it's not
Him
And then I die,
that's when I die
Oh, let it please be
Him
Oh, dear
God, it must be
Him
It must be him or I shall die
Or I shall die
Oh, hello, hello, my dear
God
It must be him, but it's not him
And then I die
That's when I die
