AS A BOY

As a boy I would stand

in awe of the sight of the band

criss and crossing the land,

the lights and the clapping of hands

As a boy, as a boy, as a boy

I see things

As a boy, as a boy, as a boy

I see things

And I'm throwing pennies

that belong 

to the bank of your heart,

the bank of your heart

I wish it could be mine

Later on as a man

I'm doing the best that I can

I imagine your lips,

my hands on the side of your hips

As a boy, as a boy, as a boy

I see things

As a boy, as a boy, as a boy

I see things

And I'm throwing pennies

that belong 

to the bank of your heart.

the bank of your heart

I wish it could be mine...

IN LOVE

Picture you naked 

with a pen and an eraser

and a piece of paper

down by the equator

Hopping atop the backs 

of giant alligators,

rifling through craters, 

I work as a waiter

So I would wait up

till the streetlights luminated,

our bodies gyrated

neon entertainment

And I'll keep some for now

and save the rest for later,

rumbling radiator,

peaceful gladiator....

You're my baby, you're my baby

You're my baby, you're my baby

You're my baby, you're my baby

You're my baby

I sing cause I'm in love

Undress you in my mind

and press your breasts to my chest

our arms intertwine, yeah

I can feel your caress

A game of pick up sticks

with sweet and sultry whispers

You're rubbling on my whiskers,

I'm blowing on your cinders

And we can laze all day,

trade kisses in the park, yeah

till long after dark, yeah

kindling and spark, yeah

And it's a great big world 

and there's no way around it,

I've been looking for a cure

and just maybe I found it

You're my baby, you're my baby (x3)

You're my baby

I sing cause I'm in love

Picture you naked

with a pencil and some paper

and a new eraser

down by the equator

And I would shiver

I would shake and I would grin, yeah

You tell me that I'm thin, yeah

but it's the skin I'm in, yeah

Shimmy down your street

till I reach your apartment,

dance across your floor

and waltz across your carpet

And it's a great big world

and we all stand atop it, 

Love is the glue

that keeps all of us from falling off it

You're my baby, you're my baby (x3)

You're my baby

I sing cause I'm in love

You're my baby, you're my baby (x3)

You're my baby

I sing cause I'm in love...

I sing cause I'm in love
