Somethin' Stupid

Now, Clementine, you'll have to wait in line

'Til I have time to spend an evening with you

And if we go someplace to dance

You know that there's a chance I won't be leaving with you

But if we leave together

There's a place where you can buy us both a drink or two

But I ain't gonna drink too much

Or I'll say somethin' stupid like "I love you"

Oh, my darlin', Clementine

You do remind me of a poor old maid that I once met

Although she said that she knew all the answers

But no one had asked the questions yet

I watch the Johnny Carson and the Joey Bishop show

For somethin' clever to say

But then I keep it to myself and hope that you'll get bored

And maybe you'll go away

The perfume that you're wearin' has me swearin'

That you're usin' good ol' Mountain Dew

And if I get a whiff of it

I might say somethin' stupid like "I love you"

"I love you", "I lurve you"

(Homer, I didn't know you cared)

(Ah, Jethro, it's just a song)

(How 'bout that trumpet player?)

(I don't love him)

(Oh)
