You talk of sweeties, bashful sweeties
I got one of those
Oh, he's handsome as can be
But he worries me
He goes to college and gathers knowledge
Hooh! What that boy knows!
He's up in his Latin and Greek
But in his sheikin', he's weak!
'Cause when I want some lovin'
And I gotta have some lovin'
He says, "Please! Stop it, please!"
He's so unusual
When I want some kissin'
And I gotta have some kissin'
He says, "No! Let me go"
He's so unusual
I know lots of boys who would be crazy over me
If they only had this fellow's opportunity
You know, I would let him pet me
But the darn fool, he doesn't let me!
Oh, he's so unusual that he drives me wild
When we're in the moonlight,
He says, "I don't like the moonlight.
Aw, let's not talk in the dark"
Huh, he's so unusual
And when we're riding in a taxi,
He converses with the chauffeur,
Oh, why don't he talk to me?
Oh, he's so different
Others would be tickled pink to bop-op-a-dop-e-dop
He don't even know what bop-op-op-a-dop's about
He says love is hokum
Oh, I'd like to choke, choke, choke him
'Cause he's so unusual that he drives me wild
You might as well be by yourself as in his company
When we're out together, I'm as lonesome as can be
But still I'm mad about him
And I just can't live without him
'Cause he's so unusual that he drives me bop-bop-a-dop-boop!
