Lyrics

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

And then I die

That's when I die

After a while, I'm myself again

I pick the pieces off the floor

Put my heart on the shelf again

You'll never hurt me anymore

I'm not a puppet on a string

I'll find somebody else someday

That's when the phone rings

And once again, I start to 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

And then I die

Again I die

Let it please be him, oh, dear God

It must be him, it must be him

Or I shall die

Or I shall die
