Lyrics
Chorus:
“I wonder what’s the matter with my eyes?
I wish I knew
I wonder if it’s their enormous size?
Oh, tell me do
Or can it be a nervous blink
That makes the boys all think I wink
I wonder what’s the matter with my eyes?”
Chorus:
“I wonder what’s the matter with my eyes?
I wish I knew
I wonder if it’s their enormous size?
Oh, tell me do
If postal cards from “Gay Paree”
Look bad to him and good to me
I wonder what’s the matter with my eyes?”
