[Vocals: Debbie Harry, Elvis Costello]

I must confess what you say is true
You had a rendezvous with somebody new
It's the only one I ever had
Baby, baby, don't you go 'way mad

Well, cheatin' shows, and it never goes
You got a reason to be mad, I suppose
She was only just a passin' fad
Baby, baby, don't you go 'way mad

Her kind's a dime a dozen
And that's not the kind you want
Who would have thought your cousin
Would wander into that restaurant?

Well, you understand that I feel upset
What do you say that we forgive and forget?
Come on and kiss me just to prove you're glad
Baby, baby, don't you go away mad

[Solo]

Now, her kind is a dime a dozen
You should have passed her by
Who would have thought your little cousin
Would come along and give us the eye?
Hmph, well, you understand that I feel upset
What do you say that we forgive and forget?
Come and kiss me just to prove you're glad I, no
Baby, baby, don't you go away mad
Come and kiss me just to prove you're glad Oh, oh
Baby, baby, don't you go away mad
Come and kiss me just to prove you're glad
Deborah, darling, don't you go away mad
Baby, baby, baby
