Lyrics
Just because I happened to meet
Someone very charming and sweet
Doesn’t necessarily spell romance
So Mister Cupid let me say this to you in advance
Refrain
Li’l boy love, don’t get cute
In your dimpled birthday suit
Li’l boy love, you can’t shoot this old heart
Li’l boy love, get along with your safety pin sarong
Don’t you know I’m too wise
I’m too smart?
Zing! Ouch! What was that?
Cupid knocked me flat with his li’l bow’n arry
Watch me marry
Watch me weaken and fall
‘Cause I’m human after all
Just one more victim of li’l boy love
