Paper Doll

I'm gonna buy a paper doll that I can call my own
A doll that other fellows cannot steal
And then those flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes
Will have to flirt with dollies that are real

When I come home at night she will be waiting (awaiting)
She'll be the truest doll in all this world (in all this world)
I'd rather have a paper doll to call my own
Than have a fickle-minded real life girl

I guess I've had a million dolls or more
I guess I've played the doll game o'er and o'er
I just quarrelled with Sue, that's why I'm so blue
She's gone away and left me just like all dolls do

I'll tell you boys, it's tough to be alone (all alone, all alone)
And it's rough to love a doll that's not your own (not your own, not our own)
I'm through with all of them (he'll never fall again)
('Cause this his buddies gonna do)

I'm gonna buy a paper doll that I can call my own
A doll those other fellows cannot steal
And then those flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes
Will have to flirt with dollies that are real

When I come home at night she will be waiting (she'll be waiting)
And she'll be the truest doll in all this world (in all this world)
I'd rather have a paper doll to call my own
Than have a fickle-minded real life girl
