Cole Porter
It’s Bad For Me
[Verse]
Your words go through and through me
And leave me totally dazed
For they do such strange things to me
They nearly make me gloomy
For you dear are so clever
So obviously the top
I wish you'd go on forever
I wish even more you'd stop
[Chorus]
Oh it's bad for me, it's bad for me
The knowledge that you're going mad for me
I feel certain my friends would be glad for me
But it's bad for me
It's so good for me so new for me
To see someone in such a stew for me
And when you say you'll do all you could for me
It's so good for me it's bad for me
[Bridge]
I felt 'til you whispered to me
Completely left on the shelf
But since you started to woo me
I'm just crazy about myself
[Chorus]
It's a boon for me, a break for me
To hear that your heart's on the make for me
Yet no matter however appealing
I still have a feeling it's bad for me
It's so sweet for me, it's swell for me
To feel that you're going through hell for me
Yet no matter however appealing
I still have a feeling it's bad for me
