SHY

Someone's being bashful- That's no way to be, not with me. Can't you see that I am just as embarassed as you? And I can understand your point of view: I've always been SHYYYYYYYYYY! I confess it I'm shyyyyyyyyyyy! Can't you guess that this confident air is a mask that I wear, cause I'm shyyyyyyyyyy? and you may be suuuuuuuure: way down deep I'm demuuuuuuuuuure. Though some people I know might deny it, At bottom I'm quiet and pure! I'm aware that it's wrong to be meek as I am; My chances may pass me by. I pretend to be strong, but as weak as I am, All I can do is try, God knows I tryyyyyyyyy! Though I'm frightened and shyyyyyyy And despite the impression I give, I confess that I'm living a lie, Because I'm actually terribly timid, And hoooooooooooorribly.............SHY! -Once Upon a Mattress by Jay Thompson, Marshall Barer and Dean Fuller Music by Mary Fuller Lyrics by Marshal Barer
