I beheld her and was conquered at the start
And placed her on a pedestal apart
I planned a little hideaway that we could share some day
When I met her I unfolded all my dreams
And told her how she’d fit into my schemes of what bliss is
Then the blow came when she gave her name as «Mrs.»
I guess I’ll have to change my plan
I should’ve realized there’d be another man
I overlooked that point completely
Until the big affair began
Before I knew where I was at
I found myself upon the shelf and that was that
I tried to reach the moon, but when I got there
All that I could get was the air
My feet are back upon the ground
I’ve lost the one girl I found
I guess I’ll have to change my plan
I should’ve realized there’d be another man
Why did I buy those blue pajamas
Before the big affair began
My boiling point is much too low
For me to try to be a fly Lothario
I think I’ll crawl right back and into my shell
Dwelling in my personal hell
I’ll have to change my plan around
I’ve lost the one girl I found
Yes, the one girl I found
