That's Sabotage

Performed by Glenn Miller and his Orchestra

Written by Mack Gordon, Harry ?

Baby what's wrong with you
I can't get along with you
When it comes to romance
You're never in the mood
I'd say "yes!", you'd say "no!"
I'd say "stop!" You'd say "go!"
Lately honey, I can't understand Your attitude

If you don't thrill me like you used to thrill me
That's Sabotage
If you don't kiss me like you used to kiss me
That's Sabotage
When you hear sirens squealing
Those "be-alert" alarms
Don't run helter-skelter
There's a bomb-proof shelter
In my arm

If you don't thrill me like you used to thrill me
That's sabotage
Some fifth-column jerk, did his dirty work
And changed your mind about me
I can't sleep
I've got to keep my FB-eye on you
'Cause if you've been untrue
That's Sabotage

You don’t thrill me like you used to thrill me,
That’s sabotage,
Some fifth-column jerk did his dirty work
And changed your mind about me
I can’t sleep
I‘ve got to keep my FB-eye on you
`Cause, baby, you’ve become a habit
Please don‘t go and try to crab it
If you’ve been untrue,
That’s sabotage!
