I Beeped When I Should Have Bopped

Beep-beep-beep-beepy-beep-beep-bee-bee Slow down, honey. Be cool. It looks like you'll never learn how to bop. You're nothing but a square! All you do is beep-beep-beep. You're a bring-down and I'm cutting out. Goodbye! There she goes! My life was all sunshine and roses With the gal, I was right at the top Well, we get along swell till she suddenly fell for The music that's known as bop Oh, I tried to be so hep for her sake Till one day I made my fatal mistake I beeped when I should have bopped Lapped when I should have lopped I was walking on air till she called me a square 'Cause I beeped when I should have bopped I dipped when I should have flipped I tripped when I should have hipped My romancing was fine till I got out of line 'Cause I beeped when I should have bopped Oh-ya-coo, coo-ya-oo, oo-ba-doo, shmoo-ba-poo It all sounds the same to me Bla-de-da, da-de-bla, diddly-da, schmiddly-pa Is it something that's served with tea? Hiccups! I beeped when I should have bopped I heaped when I should have hopped I was giving my all to my bum of the ball And now I'm blowing my top 'Cause I beeped when I should have bopped Oh-ya-coo, coo-ya-oo, oo-ba-doo, schmoo-ba-poo It all sounds the same to me Bla-de-da, da-de-bla, diddly-da, schmiddly-pa Is it something that's served with tea? I beeped when I should have bopped I heaped when I should have hopped I was giving my all to the bum of the ball And now I'm blowing my top 'Cause I beeped Slow down man! 'Cause I leaped Be cool Daddio! 'Cause I beeped That's the end! When I should have bopped --- I Beeped When I Should Have Bopped - Louis Prima and Louis Prima & His Orchestra
