Imagine My Frustration

Ella Fitzgerald

8

I went down to the dance

Such clown by the wall

Invited to dance

By no one at all

The couples danced fine

So charming an' gay

But nobody wants

Look over my way

So awfuly sad

Dissatisfied

I hurt so bad

I almost cried

Imagine my frustration with no

Invitation to dance

-Head high, standing tall

Who else, who else could I be?

But Ella, next to the wall,

A fella who likes what they see?-

-And then in my ear

Someone said to me

Wallflower, my dear,

How come you cant see

They couldnt care less

They're not impressed

As you might guessed

You're in excess-

Imagine my frustration with no

Invitation to dance

I smiled to the crowd

-Tip toe and alert-

Yes the band blues went loud

But next on a flirt

-A voice said to me

Wallflower, my dear

You're sweet as can be

But how come you're here

They couldn't less

About your dress

You're in a mess

And in excess-

Imagine my frustration with no

Invitation to dance
