[00:12.51]I tell myself what's done is done
[00:16.95]I tell myself don't be a fool
[00:21.33]Play the field have a lot of fun
[00:25.53]It's easy when you play it cool
[00:30.45]I tell myself don't be a chump
[00:33.96]Who cares, let him stay away
[00:38.64]That's when the phone rings and I jump
[00:42.87]And as I grab the phone I pray
[00:47.91]Let it please be him, oh dear God
[00:55.62]It must be him or I shall die
[01:02.70]Or I shall die
[01:05.82]Oh hello, hello my dear God
[01:10.71]It must be him but it's not him
[01:15.33]And then I die
[01:18.66]That's when I die
[01:24.30]After a while, I'm myself again
[01:28.47]I take the pieces off the floor
[01:32.61]Put my heart on the shelf again
[01:37.29]You'll never hurt me anymore
[01:41.49]I'm not a puppet on a string
[01:45.78]I'll find somebody else someday
[01:50.58]That's when the phone rings, and once again
[01:56.46]I start to pray
[01:59.91]Let it please be him, oh dear God
[02:07.47]It must be him , it must be him
[02:10.17]Or I shall die, Or I shall die
[02:17.70]Oh hello, hello my dear God
[02:42.27]It must be him but it's not him
[02:45.60]And then I die
[02:46.56]That's when I die

I tell myself what's done is done
I tell myself don't be a fool
Play the field have a lot of fun
It's easy when you play it cool
I tell myself don't be a chump
Who cares, let him stay away
That's when the phone rings and I jump
And as I grab the phone I pray
Let it please be him, oh dear God
It must be him or I shall die
Or I shall die
Oh hello, hello my dear God
It must be him but it's not him
And then I die
That's when I die
After a while, I'm myself again
I take the pieces off the floor
Put my heart on the shelf again
You'll never hurt me anymore
I'm not a puppet on a string
I'll find somebody else someday
That's when the phone rings, and once again
I start to pray
Let it please be him, oh dear God
It must be him , it must be him
Or I shall die, Or I shall die
Oh hello, hello my dear God
It must be him but it's not him
And then I die
That's when I die
