Ooh, what-cha doin to me!
You got me dreamy eyed and mistified as I can be;
Ooh, what-cha doin to me!
You make me feel like I'm about to blow my T-O-P!
Ooh, what a wonderful thrill
The day you popped the question and I answered, "Yes I will!".
I've been shooting roman candles off so everyone can see,
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, what-cha doin to me!
Ooh, what-cha doin to me!
My friends all seem to think I suffer from insanity!
Ooh, what-cha doin to me!
I tell them all about you, then cop out with vanity.
Ooh, baby tell me it's true,
Then, when we meet the preacher, you will answer, "Yes I do!".
I've been turning handstands down the street so everyone can see!
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, what-cha doin to me!
