she shone up bright like a knife
wearing tennis shorts made of stripes
hand in hand to the grass and we got it right
got it nice, nice, nice
just a glimpse of an ankle and I
react like it’s 1805
and I’d swim to the poles just to find the right satellite
it’ll take all of my strength to give up

but you all know I tried
so forget about it, girl
my head’s like a kite
when such a creature I sight

to town!
where you’re feet leave no prints on the ground
have I left my home just to whine in this microphone?
it gets worse every time that we talk
can’t afford to be just one in a flock
but that’s your lot
when you’re after such a well-made lock
who was classically trained to give up

and my friends know I tried
so forget about it, girl
even I don’t know why
I can’t just stay the course
keep my hands on the wheel
our detractors were right
my head’s like a kite
all my thoughts run astray
and I’m a walking cliché
when such a creature I sight
