Linda Eder - Don't Ask Me Why Lyrics
Lyrics: Jack Murphy/Linda EderThere are those who manage such a charmed existenceLucky ladies who've been fortunate since birthAll the major domos know themAnd obligingly will show themStraight to the only table left on earthThese are people for whom life is not a challengeThey've got savoir faire that oozes pedigreeThey're the women men will die forAnd millionaires will buy forBut I fear these ladies aren't me...The cake life served meis upside downThe soup du jour I'm having spillsOn my best gownI get all wetEach time I surf the net, yetBaby, don't ask me whyIt always rains onMy one day offAnd my blind date turned intoBoris KarloffIt's lie a curseI go from bad to worse butBaby, don't ask me whyFunny...Down at the IRSI get the guy who never says "yes"God, what a messIt's all so taxingMaybe...Life is a cosmic gaffFashioning punch lines into a laughToo cute by halfI don't know, don't ask me And then I saw youThat rainy day...Drenched to the bone and all aloneWhat can I sayWhen you are nearMy motor hits high gear, dearNo clue, don't ask me whyMaybe...This is the perfect dealThis time the schmo has found her schlemielNow maybe we'llFind that happy endingMaybe...You are the missing cogMaybe the princess lost in the fogKiss the one frogWho was worth befriendingThe world will go onMuch as beforeI'll lose the keys right afterYou lock the doorIt seems to meThat we were meant to be, seeWe've got compatibilityYou're the pie and I'm the faceYou're the shoe tripping on my laceYou're the yin and I'm the yangYou're the lemon and I'm meringueYou're the fourth of my JulyTogether we'll blow sky high, andwe'll never say good-bye...butBaby, don't ask me whyWhy don't elephants fly?Why are high heels so high?Why is Ru Paul a guy?Baby, don't ask me why
