(chorus)
It s going round the town
It s going round the town
It s going round the town
You re so lovable
My baby gave me notice to quit
I just can t get used to it
She broke my little heart in two
Now somebody else is being the same old you
(chorus
My baby has Egyptian eyes
And a wicked look beyond compare
If you thought I was a fool for you
Then I must be a bigger fool for her
(chorus)
He d turn the flowers of springtime into a wreath
He says he d love you eternally
I say please please can t you keep it brief
They say they re going to bury you
Because you re so lovable
Put your money where your mouth was
You re so lovable
Each tender mumble brings us closer to bedlam
You re so lovable
The toast of the town and the talk of the bedroom
(modulation)
You re so lovable
You re so sweet
You re so honest
You say `I ll be true to you boy
But I won t promise
Then you say you love me
Then you show me
As you lie there so lifelike below me
(chorus)
