Lyrics

What's the matter with you
Look down on everything we do
I really wonder if you see today like I do
What's the matter with you
What's the matter with you
You don't look cool in shades of blue
I really wonder if you see today like I do
What's the matter with you
When I got up today I felt so much brighter
My head was swimming with delight and I told her
But she said, "What's so good about today?"
As she walked away
She's down in the dumps without a reason why
What's the matter with you
Look down on everything we do
I really wonder if you see today like I do
What's the matter with you
Gonna keep an eye on you I'll be your dictator
So you better buck up or I'll deal with you later
So beat the drum and let the trumpet blow
You gotta let go
In the heat of the moment you reap what you sow
What's the matter with you
Look down on everything we do
I really wonder if you see today like I do
What's the matter with you
What's the matter with you
Look down on everything we do
I really wonder if you see today like I do
What's the matter with you
The worried look that's on your face makes you older
You realize that things will never be better
Yes sir, the weathers clear there's Eskimos, in summer clothes
I don't suppose you'd like to laugh with me
What's the matter with you
You look down on everything we do
I really wonder if you see today like I do
What's the matter with you
