Leftovers |
| I met her in the museum of paleontology |
| And I make no bones about it I said if you wish to study dinosaurs, |
| I know a specimen whose interest is undoubted |
| Trapped in a body that is failing me Well, please allow me to be succinct |
| I wanna love you whilst we both still have flesh upon our bones |
| Before we both become extinct |
| That’s what I told her: I wanna be your lover |
| And then I told her twice: I wanna be your lover |
| Well, he says that he loves you like a sister |
| Well I guess, I guess that’s relative |
| He says that he wants to make love to you |
| Well instead of «to», shouldn’t that be «with»? |
| Oh, I told you once: I wanna be your lover |
| And now I’ve told you twice: I wanna be your lover |
| And so I come to you filled with guilt and self-loathing |
| And I am praying that you could make me good |
| And so I fall upon your neck just like a vampire |
| Yeah, like a vampire who faints at the sight of blood |
| And I told you once: I wanna be your lover |
| I’m gonna say it again |
| And then I told you twice: I wanna be your lover |
| Well this is my CV and I’ve got no one else to blame |
| So I will state, state my case, I will state it again |
| Come and help yourself to leftovers |
| Got a little surplus love and affection |
| And getting cuddly, so won’t you cuddle me? |
| I could be your teddy bear… oh yeah |
| I know I ain’t no eligible bachelor |
| This is no mouthwatering proposition |
| Make no mistake, you’re in big trouble, little lady |
| If we start a-hugging and a-kissing |
| And a-kissing, are you listening? |
| 'Cause I told you once |
| And then I told you twice |
| And now I told you three times |
| And at the risk of repeating myself |
| I’m gonna say it again |
| Yeah |
| I wanna be your lover |
| Yeah yeah yeah yeah |
| I wanna be your lover |
| Yeah yeah yeah yeah |
| I wanna be your lover |
| Yeah yeah yeah yeah |
| I wanna be your lover |
| Yeah yeah yeah yeah |
| I wanna be your lover |
