Silly Thing Lyrics - Five Classic Albums - Graham Parker

You want me be someone better 

I just wanna monkey 'round yeah 

You want me to write you a letter 

But the words just won't come the right way 

My pen won't listen to a thing that I say 

Silly thing hey hey silly thing hey hey 

Well it don't mean a thing if you ain't got that swing 

Silly thing hey hey yeah hey hey. 

Maybe you're getting sloppy 

Under the midday sun oh yeah. 

You come on like a carbon copy 

But I just wanna hang to the way you live. 

Don't you want the love I got to give

Silly thing hey hey silly thing hey hey

Well I just wanna hang to the way you live. 

Don't you want the love I got to give

Silly thing hey hey silly thing hey hey 

Well it don't mean a thing if you ain't got that swing 

Silly thing hey hey yeah hey hey. 

I said you don't-a mean a thing if you ain't got that swing 

Silly thing hey hey repeat and fade
