Well, I used think the color of love
|
Would be a rosy red or a pretty pink
|
And I thought it would be
|
A thirsty man crawlin' home to get a big old drink.
|
|
And I thought love was spelled like a bell
|
B-E-double L bell that you ring
|
Stead of wham bam hit your man with a pan
|
Hit him on the head hear the birdies sing.
|
|
Oh, you heart breakin', love makin'
|
Cut me-a-piece-of-bacon man of mine
|
And you money shiftin', flour siftin'
|
Nose liftin' rose of woman kind.
|
|
Just keep on doin' what you're doin'
|
And what you're doin' suits me just fine
|
And love, I tell you somethin' else
|
You blow my mind.
|
|
Well, I used to think the color of love
|
Would be a soft green like a pea in a pod
|
And I thought love would strike
|
Like a light flashin' down a big old lightnin' rod.
|
|
And I thought love was spelled
|
W-E-double L well that would never run dry
|
Instead of choke, choke I'm so broke and dry
|
I can't afford a little bitty tear to cry.
|
|
Oh, you money turnin', egg churnin'
|
Butter burnin' baby of mine
|
You half crazy, lean and lazy
|
Pretty as a wilted daisy man of mine.
|
|
Just keep on doin' what you're doin'
|
And what you're doin' suits me just fine
|
And love, I tell you somethin' else
|
You blow my mind.
|
|
You blow my mind, you blow my mind
|
You blow my mind, you blow my mind...
|
