[Verse 1]
Envious, why should she be so envious?
She's says that I've got diamond rings
And furs and things
And even though it's true
Still, I'm blue, so blue
[Verse 2]
Envious, I can't see why she's envious
'Cause even though I've got the things
That seem so real
She doesn't know how blue I feel
'Cause she's got you (Envious)
[Bridge]
It's so strange how things turn out
How funny life can be
I envy her 'cause she has you
And now I find out that she envies me
[Verse 3]
Envious, she's such a fool to be envious
'Cause I would gladly trade the things that I possess
For just kiss, one sweet caress
From you
Which goes to show
That I envy her too (Envious)
[Outro]
I really do envy her too (Envious)
I really do envy her too (Envious)
Envious, why should she be so envious?
She's says that I've got diamond rings
And furs and things
And even though it's true
Still, I'm blue, so blue
[Verse 2]
Envious, I can't see why she's envious
'Cause even though I've got the things
That seem so real
She doesn't know how blue I feel
'Cause she's got you (Envious)
[Bridge]
It's so strange how things turn out
How funny life can be
I envy her 'cause she has you
And now I find out that she envies me
[Verse 3]
Envious, she's such a fool to be envious
'Cause I would gladly trade the things that I possess
For just kiss, one sweet caress
From you
Which goes to show
That I envy her too (Envious)
[Outro]
I really do envy her too (Envious)
I really do envy her too (Envious)
