Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You swam the moat?
Alright, I was a little anxious
My friend, Sir Harry
He told me you had an opening for a princess
Any princess
I figured, the early bird
[Verse 2]
Oh, anyway, here I am
Who's the lucky man?
[Verse 3]
Hey, Nonny, Nonny, is it you?
(Hey, Nonny, Nonny, Nonny, no)
Hey, Nonny, Nonny, is it you?
(Hey, Nonny, Nonny, Nonny, no)
Hey, Nonny, Nonny, is it you
Or you, or you, or you, or
(Nonny, Nonny, neeny, neeny, neeny, neeny, neeny)
No, no, no
[Verse 4]
Someone bein's bashful
That's no way to be
Not with me
Can't you see?
That I am just as embarrassed as you
And I can understand your point of view
[Verse 5]
I've always been shy
I confess that I'm shy
Can't you guess that this confident air is a mask the I wear?
'Cause I'm shy
And you may be sure way down deep I'm demure
Though some people I know might deny it
At bottom I'm quiet and pure
I'm aware that it's wrong to be meek as I am
My chances may pass me by
I pretend to be strong
But as weak as I am
All I can do is try
God knows I try
Though I'm frightened and shy
And despite the impression I give
I confess that I'm living a lie
Because I'm actually terribly timid
And horribly shy
[Verse 6]
Though a lady may be dripping with glamor
As often as not she will stumble and stammer
When suddenly confronted with romance
And she's likely to fall on her face
When she's finally face to face with a pair pants
Quite often the lady's not as hard to please as she seems
Quite often she'll settle for something less than a man of her dreams
[Verse 7]
I'm goin' fishin' for a mate
(She's goin' fishin' for a mate)
I'm gonna look in every brook
(She's gonna look in every brook)
But how much longer must I wait
With baited breath and hook?
[Verse 8]
Oh, that was wonderful
[Verse 9]
And that is why though I'm painfully shy
I'm insane to know which sir
You sir?
(Not I, sir)
Then who, sir?
Where, sir, and when, sir?
I couldn't be tenser
So let's get this done, man
Get on with the fun, man
I am one man
(The lady is one man shy) Shy
