The Manhattan Transfer · Other Songs - The Manhattan Transfer

Alone am I, me and I together

If I went away from me

How unhappy I would be

Me and I, oh my



Bug-Gup, Bug-Gup

Lovely evening

Bug-Gup, Bug-Gup

I said, "Lovely evening"



Clunk, clunk, clunk

I said, "Beautiful evening"

Hello, Bug-Gup

Hello, Bug-Gup, hello
