Nellie McKay - Wonderful Guy Lyrics

I expect everyone of my crowd to make fun
Of my proud protestations of faith in romance
And theyâ??ll say Iâ??m naÃ¯ve as a babe to believe
Every fable I hear from a person in pants

Fearlessly Iâ??ll face them and argue their doubts away
Loudly Iâ??ll sing about flowers in spring
Flatly Iâ??ll stand on my little flat feet and say
Love is a grand and a beautiful thing

Iâ??m not ashamed to reveal
The world famous feeling I feel

Iâ??m as corny as Kansas in August
Iâ??m as normal as blueberry pie
No more a smart little girl with no heart
I have found me a wonderful guy

I am a conventional dither
With a conventional star in my eye,
And you will note thereâ??s a lump in my throat
When I speak of that wonderful guy

Iâ??m as trite and as gay as a daisy in May
A clichÃ© coming true
Iâ??m bromidic and bright
As a moon-happy night
Pouring light on the dew

Iâ??m as corny as Kansas in August
High as a flag on the fourth of July
If youâ??ll excuse an expression I use
Iâ??m in love, Iâ??m in love
Iâ??m in love, Iâ??m in love
Iâ??m in love with a wonderful guy
