Lyrics Sesame Street Is No Place for Romance - A Lot Like Birds

Sesame Street Is No Place for Romance

I know something you don’t,
Won’t ever know
I know something you don’t,
Take my advice, take my advice
Please!
babe!
You take us so far when never we get close,
You take us so far when never we get close!
You’re busy stealing glances
And oh I know
That nothing in this world’s for free
Take my advice, take my advice
Please!
babe!
Don’t you think that we haven’t noticed your uncanny silence
(Uncanny, uncanny silence)
We’ve made note of those circles that are deepening under your eyes
(Under your eyes, under your eyes)
Darling, where have you been?
(Where have you been, where have you been?)
Pretending like an elephant doesn’t make you wise,
And I think it’s time
(Yeah, I think it’s time)
That you say it for yourself
Pretending like an elephant doesn’t make me wise
No matter how loud I scream it
It won’t scare away the flies
And though I know how you listen
You never hear a thing
So just sit there in your painting
While these mockingbirds sing
Get ready to kiss my warm skin more
Get ready to get now
My, my, my warm skin more
My, my… we’ll say!
