Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:


Lyrics

My left shoe’s on the right foot
My right shoe’s on my left
Oh! Listen to me, Mimi
Of reason I’m bereft
The buttons of my trousers
Are buttoned to my vest
Oh! Listen to me, Mimi,
Mere passion’s in my breast

Refrain:
Mimi
You funny little good-for-nothing Mimi
Am I the guy?
Mimi
You sunny little honey of a Mimi
I’m aiming high
Mimi
You’ve got me sad and dreamy
You could free me
If you’d see me
Mimi
You know I’d like to have a little
Son of a Mimi bye and bye
