She's a good girl
She don't try to hide it
Man, I got the Angela blues
I'm a bad boy
Opposites attract
Opposites attract
So why won't she choose?
Sing ta na na
Ta na na na
Because man, I got the Angela blues
Ta na na
Ta na na na
Because man, I got the Angela blues
Man, I got the Angela blues (good girl)
Man, I got the Angela blues
Man, I got the Angela blues
Man, I got the Angela blues
People say I'm crazy
Say I'm lookin' for the Angela blues
Well, I just want her to hurry up and choose
Man, I got the Angela blues
And just when we're gettin' cozy
It's like she suddenly remembers
That we're "just friends"
It's like she doesn't realize
The vibe she sends me
Beautiful Angela
And babe, I love you ooo ooo
As if we could make it work
We could figure it out
As if we could forget all our worries
And put aside all of our doubts
And forget all about the Angela blues
She spreads her wings in the moonlight
And then she leaves with a smile
The bad boy heaves a sigh
And goes to sit a while
To contemplate what he knows he's gonna lose
And she said, "Honey, don't you worry!"
But she ended up by sleeping with a Broadway
Leaving me to wander by myself
Along the hallway
All alone with my Angela blues
But I still love you ooo ooo
As if we could make it work
We could figure it out
As if we could forget all those worries
And put aside all of our doubts
Beautiful Angela
People say I'm crazy
Say I'm lookin' for the Angela blues, yeah
Now I'm doomed to be the one she didn't choose
I'll always have the Angela blues
