Is There Anything Wrong in That? lyrics

There are certain things that keep me guessing

Though I try so hard to make them out

Now, I don't understand, so I'm confessing

But I don't know just what it's all about

Now, I can't tell the bad things from the good

'Cause mother she never told me all she should

A man just offered me diamond rings

If I'd go places and I'd do things

Oh, tell me, is there anything wrong in that?

And then he told me that I'd look cute

In a one-piece bathing suit

Oh, tell me, is there anything wrong in that?

Now, I was in a parlor with this fellow last night

And I know why he kissed me and he squeezed me

so tight

But still I don't understand a bit

Why he whispered, "Baby, you have it!"

What's 'It', hmm?

Is there anything wrong in that?

All these questions, they nearly drive me crazy

Every day brings puzzles that are new

'Cause when things should be cleared, they're always hazy

I don't know just what I'm gonna do

'Cause I can't tell the naughty from the nice

Won't someone please give me some good advice?

A man just loaned me his Cadillac

And I told him that I'd bring it back

Oh, tell me, is there anything wrong in that?

Oh, it was so cold in that open boat

So I just borrowed his feline coat

I ask you, is there anything wrong in that?

Well, I took my mother driving on this very same day

And she said, "Dear, you must return this car right away!"

But the funniest thing, you will never guess

I forgot his name and his address!

Oh, tell me, is there anything wrong in that?
