I thought it would be dandy If I bought that girl some candy How was I suppose to know she was allergic to chocolate I thought it would be fine If we shared a glass of wine She said, 'Oh no, not another alcoholic' Chorus: I don't understand my girlfriend I haven't got a clue I don't know where she's coming from Or where she's going to But if opposites attract Then I found the perfect woman. Jack I don't understand my girlfriend She don't understand me, too Yeah I thought I'd show some class And order pheasant under glass Hey how was I suppose to know she was an avid bird watcher Chorus No she don't understand me, too No she don't understand me, too
