Everybody tells me I'm a fool and I'm just
wastin' time to love someone who's not in
love with me.
Friends all say that I'm a dope to stay in
love when there's no hope.
But I'm a dope who loves him hopelessly.
What can I do (sha-la-la-la-la-la) hey, what
can I say? (sha-la-la-la-la-la.)
Each time I try to say goodbye, his lips get
in the way (sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.)
Oh, yeah, his lips get in the way.
(sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.)
#2.
He says my love don't mean a thing but still he
keeps me on a string.
I'm just someone he likes to have around.
I say I want no more of this but then he stops
me with a kiss.
I can't resist him though he puts me down.
What can I do (sha-la-la-la-la-la) hey, what
can I say? (sha-la-la-la-la-la.)
Each time I try to say goodbye, his lips get
in the way (sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.)
Oh, yeah, his lips get in the way.
(sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.)
#3.
Everybody calls me fool, they say, hey girl, go
back to school and learn the things that every
girl should know.
But I guess I've got no brains because my foolish
heart remains, I just can't break the chains and
let him go, no no so
What can I do (sha-la-la-la-la-la) hey, what
can I say? (sha-la-la-la-la-la.)
Each time I try to say goodbye, his lips get
in the way (sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.)
Oh, yeah, his lips get in the way.
(sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.)(oh, yeah)
His lips get in the way (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.)
His lips get in the way (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.) (Fade.)
