We were havin' such a good time, baby

Oh, yes, we were

Then you went and spoiled the whole thing, baby

In front of everyone



You're tellin' me I was wrong

And that all night long I was staring at someone else

Well, even if you were right

There's no need to fight, there's no need to get upset



Don't you get so mad about it [Do you have to get so mad]

Don't you get so mad about it [About it, about it]

Don't you get so mad about it [Ooh, ooh, ooh]

Don't you get so mad about it, hey [Mad about it]



You should learn to control your feelings

Respectably

‘Cause arguin' in public

Is embarrassin'



It's always the same thing, baby

Accusin' me out of jealousy

I never will understand

Why you make so much out such a little thing



Don't you get so mad about it [Do you have to get so mad]

Don't you get so mad about it [About it, about it]

Don't you get so mad about it [Ooh, ooh, ooh]

Don't you get so mad about it, yeah



It's all so crazy now

Somehow it's got to change

Take a look at yourself

Carrying on this way



I know you care about

The love we're buildin' here

So why get all upset

It's just not worth it

Listen to me, my dear



Don't you get so mad about it [Do you have to get so mad]

Don't you get so mad about it [About it, about it]

Don't you get so mad about it [Ooh, ooh, ooh]

Don't you get so mad about it, whoa [Mad about it], whoa, whoa, whoa



[Do you have to get so mad] Don't you get so mad, baby

[About it, about it] Whoa, whoa, ho, baby

[Ooh, ooh, ooh] Don't you get so mad about it

[Mad about it] Whoa…ho…oh…



[Do you have to get so mad] Don't get so mad now, baby

[About it, about it] Ho, don't you get so mad about it, babe, don't you get so mad

[Ooh, ooh, ooh] Don't you get so mad about it, babe, no

[Mad about it] Woo…ooh…ho



[Do you have to get so mad] Don't get so mad about it

[About it, about it] There's no need to get upset

[Ooh, ooh, ooh] Darling, please don't forget the love we had

[Mad about it] Oh…
