A Funny Thing Happened
You don't have to shout from now on when I'm out of the kitchen
What's more, I can't stand your cigarette brand and I switchin'
I'm unhappy with things the way they've occurred
It is time to face facts and not mince a word
Certain parties, they bargain and are getting the bird
Au revoir, fare thee well, and goodbye
And I'll tell you why
A funny thing happened on my way to love
I lost the young fellow I've been dreaming of
He changed while I waited and hoped for his call
To someone who's no fun at all
So I'll start forgetting
What else can I do?
And much thanks for letting me practice on you
It's farewell my lovely
Excuse please my dust
Unravel and travel I must
No tears
No hurt surprise
It's with a pleasant glow I realise
If I have that much love so deep true, and strong
All ready to hand you, my dear Mr. Wrong
Just think of the treasure, the joy and delight
I'll give to my own Mr. Right, my own Mr. Right
So hasta la vista, ta-ta, toodle-ooh
The world will keep turning
But not around you
There's someone else waiting who's more than a friend
Best wishes and dishes I'll send
Thank you so much
He won't keep me waiting like some people did
A big legal eagle, oh you lucky kid
He's not quite as flashy or devil may care
But oh, when I need him he's there
Sounds like some square, so long
I'm on my way
Thanks for the buggy ride
And may I say
If I had this much love so deep, true and strong
All ready to hand you, my dear Mr. Wrong
Just think of the treasure, the joy and delight
I'll give as long as I live
Day and night to my own Mr. Right
What's more, I can't stand your cigarette brand and I switchin'
I'm unhappy with things the way they've occurred
It is time to face facts and not mince a word
Certain parties, they bargain and are getting the bird
Au revoir, fare thee well, and goodbye
And I'll tell you why
A funny thing happened on my way to love
I lost the young fellow I've been dreaming of
He changed while I waited and hoped for his call
To someone who's no fun at all
So I'll start forgetting
What else can I do?
And much thanks for letting me practice on you
It's farewell my lovely
Excuse please my dust
Unravel and travel I must
No tears
No hurt surprise
It's with a pleasant glow I realise
If I have that much love so deep true, and strong
All ready to hand you, my dear Mr. Wrong
Just think of the treasure, the joy and delight
I'll give to my own Mr. Right, my own Mr. Right
So hasta la vista, ta-ta, toodle-ooh
The world will keep turning
But not around you
There's someone else waiting who's more than a friend
Best wishes and dishes I'll send
Thank you so much
He won't keep me waiting like some people did

All ready to hand you, my dear Mr. Wrong
Just think of the treasure, the joy and delight
I'll give as long as I live
Day and night to my own Mr. Right
