What's the Matter With Me - Ella Fitzgerald

What’s the matter with me?

Nobody loves me

I just happen to be

Unlucky in love

It seems that every time

I make a date

I know from the start

Someone’s gonna break the date

And break my heart

What’s the matter with me?

I’m awfully moody

Must my love affairs be

Like Punch and Judy?

I always walk with myself

And talk with myself

And my heart and I agree

I’m not hard to take

So for Heaven’s sake

What’s the matter with me?

I’ve read a million novels

Each had a love affair

Some of them were successful

Some of them got nowhere

Were I to write my story

It would read like this

My life’s a waste

I’ve yet to taste my first kiss

What’s the matter with me?

I’m awfully moody

Must my love affairs be

Like Punch and Judy?

I always walk with myself

And talk with myself

And my heart and I agree

Oooh tell me what’s the mystery?

What’s the trouble, the trouble can be?

What’s the matter with poor, poor me?
