Doris Day - A Wonderful Guy

I expect everyone of my crowd to make fun

Of my proud protestation of faith in romance

And you'll say I’m naïve as a babe to believe

Any fable I hear from a person in pants

I’ve been known to share your satirical attitude

Thinking that love could be kept in its place

Till of a sudden that lyrical platitude

Bounced up and hit me smack in the face

That’s how I turned out to be

The happy young woman you see

I’m as corny as Kansas in August

I’m as normal as blueberry pie

No more a smart little girl with no heart

I have found me a wonderful guy!

I am in a conventional dither

With a conventional star in my eye

And you will note there’s a lump in my throat

When I speak of that wonderful guy!

I’m as trite and as gay as a daisy in May

A cliché comin’ true

I’m bromidic and bright as a moon-happy night

Pourin’ light on the dew

I’m as corny as Kansas in August

High as a flag on the Fourth of July

If you’ll excuse an expression I use

I’m in love, I’m in love, I’m in love, I’m in love

I’m in love with a wonderful guy!
