Julie Andrews — The You Don't Want To Play With Me Blues lyrics

Lyrics

Percy, Percy
Please have mercy
Why must you always be so sad and gloomy?
Why can’t you be a little nicer to me?
Chéri, chéri
Please be merry
When I am trying to be bright and jolly
It isn’t nice to be so melancholy
Oh, dear
I’ve got the you-don't-want-to-play-with-me blues!
Don’t-want-to-play-with-me blues
It’s clear
I’ve got the you-don't-want-to-stay-with-me blues!
Don’t-want-to-stay-with-me blues
I am so good
At spreading mirth and joy
But it’s no good
With such a sulky boy
I try
To play the games the other fellows all choose
The other fellows all choose
I cry
Because you always refuse
What is a girl to do
With such a boy as you?
I’ve got those dreary
Weary
You-don't-want-to-play-with-me blues!
(dance break)
Oh, dear
I’ve got the you-don't-want-to-play-with-me blues!
Don’t-want-to-play-with-me blues
It’s clear
I’ve got the you-don't-want-to-stay-with-me blues!
Don’t-want-to-stay-with-me blues
I am so good
At spreading mirth and joy
But it’s no good
With such a sulky boy
I try
To play the games the other fellows all choose
The other fellows all choose
I sigh
Because you always refuse
What is a girl to do
With such a boy as you?
I’ve got those
Dreary
Weary
You-don't-want-to-play-with-me blues!
I’ve got those
Dreary
Weary
You-don't-want-to-play-with-me blues!
