Wonder Boy by Lesley Gore Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1964

[Chorus]
Wonder boy
Wonder boy

[Refrain 1]
That's what they call you at our school
But I think you're just an educated fool

[Chorus]
Wonder boy
Wonder boy

[Verse 1]
If you're so smart
How come you don't know I love you?
If you're so smart
How come you don't know I care?

[Refrain 2]
Your nose is always stuck in a book
I doubt if you even know how I look
[Chorus]
Wonder boy
Wonder boy

[Verse 2]
If you're so smart
How come you don't know I adore you?
If you're so smart
You oughta know I love you

[Bridge]
In reading and writing and 'rithmetic
You're the best in the class
But if you had to take a lovin' test
I doubt if you could pass

[Chorus]
Wonder boy
Wonder boy

[Verse 3]
If you're so smart
How come you don't know I'm gonna get you?
I'll bet my heart
That I'm gonna make you mine
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
If you're so smart
How come you don't know I'm gonna get you?
I'll bet my heart
That I'm gonna make you mine

[Chorus]
Wonder boy
Wonder boy

[Verse 3 (Fade)]
If you're so smart
How come you don't know I'm gonna get you...
