Lyrics van Kevin Coyne

And I Wonder




You used to love me and you used to breathe my name
Now you don't love me and I think the sun's to blame
You found a rich man and he's got an fancy yacht

And I wonder, yes, I wonder
I wonder do you need me

I know I'm a poor man but I should be given a chance
I used to hold you close down at the Palais de Dance
But now I'm crying and you don't even care

And I wonder, yes, I wonder
I wonder do you need me

I'm a loving wreck and I'm waiting waiting time
Just to wait for a letter, waiting for a line
I'm struck here, baby, down by the Serpentine

And I wonder, yes, I wonder
I wonder do you need me

London's a dreary place when there ain't no place to go
People just seat around and they don't talk to me no more
I'ma lonely, ragged and sad and blue

And I wonder, yes, I wonder
I wonder do you need me

Araby




I want to take a trip to Araby
I want to take a trip to Araby
I want to see the sun descend on a maiden's knees

I want to ride in a great bronze butterfly
I want to ride in a great bronze butterfly
I want to see the sun descend in a great big blue Arabian sky

I want to go where white men never go
I want to go where white men never go
I want to see those natives dancing their ho-di-ho, dancing their

Oh, dance all night
I want to take my trip to Araby
I want to take my trip to Araby

You know it's a-ra-ra-ra, a-ra-ra-ra
A-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-by

I'm the top, pretty baby
There ain't nobody else

Cry




Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong?
You're enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you've broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go
And the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving

Chiquitita, you and I cry
And the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

So the walls came tumbling down
And your love's a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it
I see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go
And the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving

Chiquitita, you and I cry
And the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

Evil Island Home




See the sand and the white birds swooping low
I see the sea and the dead fish floating by
I see the grass as it's growing up my door
And hear my dog as he's crying for his bone

This is my home, my evil island home
This is my home, my evil island home

See the stoat and the sharp-billed razorbill
You know they're pecking away
At my crumbling window sills

And the ice on the mountain range below
Is starting to melt
And we'll soon be washed with snow

This is my home, my evil island home
Oh, this is my home, my evil island home

I want to fly but they've taken my wings away
I want to run but I know I have to stay
I may coax the beast that wanders on the shore
To lend me his back, so I can ride away once more

This is my home, my evil island home
Oh, this is my home, my evil island home

Fetch me my woman, hey
I just want her near me now
Don't want any, any, anybody else

Want her right by my side, yes, I do, yes, I do
Got that long black hair, oh yeah
Keep a good fat boy satisfied

Oh, she has caused my heart to bleed
Oh, fetch me my woman, oh yes, oh yes, oh yes

I don't think she want me

I'm down in the mire, babe
Since you not been around
Everybody's talking crazy at me
I think I'd better be homeward bound

She might be home today, tomorrow
She might be home today, tomorrow
She might be home today

Fetch me my woman
I know she wants me to have my way
Wants me to have my way, oh yeah, oh yeah

Fetch me my woman
Here she comes
Here she comes

She went up north
Just for a few days
Just for a few days
But she never returned

I know she has her secret ways of teasing me
But I'd rather be dead
If she's gonna tease me anymore, anymore
She got that long, long black hair
I just can't stand the pain anymore, anymore, oh yes

Fetch me my woman
Oh, fetch me my woman
Fetch me my woman
Fetch me my woman, all you men

I know she may be teasing me
Long black hair, not pleasing me
Fetch me my woman, baby, oh
Fetch me my woman
Oh, oh, oh, fetch me my woman right now

Hot Potato




My baby's a hot potato

This song's about a girl called a hot potato
She couldn't learn to dance, so, I had to make her
And I call her my hot potato
'Cause she can dance all around the floor
There it goes

My baby's a hot potato
She can't dance but I know I'll make her
She's so dumb, she can't see
Her lack of ability is killing me

She's gotta be a hot potato
She's gotta be a hot potato

Soon, she's got to learn to rock
She's got to learn to roll
She's got to learn to move
She's got to get some soul

Oh baby, get up off that chair
Hold my hand, you'll soon be there
Dance with me baby, my baby's a hot potato
You gotta be a hot potato, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm gonna take you
Take you downtown
I'm gonna show you the bright lights
Show you around

You'll soon learn to dance
Like you've never done before
You'll learn to rock
You'll learn to shake the floor

My baby's a hot potato
Bound to be a hot potato yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, she's dancing now
Oh, she learnt so fast

Down and around she goes
Up and down, round and round
Up and down, round and round
Oh hot potato, hot potato

So, you've learned
You know what to do
Now, you're my girl
You're gonna love me true

I'm gonna kiss you, I'm gonna take you out
There ain't no barriers, now, we can shout, alright
Oh, we're both hot potatos
We're both hot potatos, now, right now

Away we go
We're going round and round
Away we go
We're going round and round

Oh, up and down
Oh, up and down
Oh, up and down, baby
Oh, up and down, baby

Work it out
We're both hot potatos
We're both hot potatos now

Karate King




Yeah, they call him the Karate King
Chopping children down like trees
Bringing cows to their knees
Making their udders bleed

Now they call him the Karate King
Top of the shop in his robe
Nothing there can grow
When he's around

Going chop, chop
Going chop, chop
Going chop, chop
Down in the gymnasium

They call him the Karate King
Like a bird on a wing
Standing posing at the window
At the door in his vest

His white and muscled flexing at all the passing girls
Smashing his way through the window frames
Ripping apart his mother's pearls
They're dying on the dressing table

Chop, chop
Chop, chop
Chop, chop
Chop, chop

So if you see the Karate King
Help him, help him
Maybe you'll tie, tie his shoe laces
Come on, come on, comment on his pomaded hair

Tell him he would have been an excellent
Kamikaze pilot in the Second World War
'Cause that's what he wants to hear
That's what he wants to hear in the gymnasium

Chop, chop
Chop, chop
Chop, chop

My Message to the People




Oh we're high, out on a highway
Driving, rushing down a sweaty road
Past those suburban drinking bars
Searching for, searching for my white and celluloid star

And my message to the people
Is don't tie me to your steeple
Don't put me in the stocks in your market square

Hey, hey you nameless dropper
Of nameless names
Don't you know I'ma going to get the fame?
Going to get the flame

A day penciled in for me
I'll get the glee, I'll arrive at me
Can't you see I'm going to be there?
Oh yeah when the chimes ring out

And my message to the people
Don't tie me to your sacred steeple
Don't you put me in the stocks in your market square

So, it's hey razzle-dazzle
I'm about to dazzle
I'm about to frazzle somewhere
And when you say "Who? Who is he?"

You know it's gonna be me
'Cause my face is there
For all of you to see, every day
Upside inside out every way

And when they say, "Ooh la la"
At the party on the hill, I'll still get a thrill
Even though that castle's tumbling down
I won't wear a frown 'cause I waited so long

And my message to the people
Is don't you tie me to your steeple
Don't you put me in your stocks in your market square

Oh, razzmatazz
Yes, pick up that glass
Oh, the funky livin' life
The life, the strife of jazz

So watch out people
Here I'm coming, here I'm running
My gold leaden boots on my feet
Well, I'm in your stairway, your airway to the stars

So, I don't mind though
You pretend to be blind
Maybe tomorrow
You will alleviate my sorrow

Eh eh, watch me now
As into the tangle I go

And my message to the people
Is I love you all you people
And I'll find my own stocks
And I'm digging my own market square

Hey, dance on your mother's grave
Hey, you know I'm a media, I'm a media slave
Your Beatle cuttin', sure fottin' savin' rave

And my message to the people
Is that people will be people
That people will be people, just the same

Need Somebody




Now, that I'm getting old and
Now, I'm getting cold and
There's nothing left to say
Just like a daffodil, you know I will
You know wilting in my way

And I need somebody
Yes, I need somebody
Yes, I need, need somebody
Now, I know I'm getting old

This is a lonely life
Man, without your wife
Without a bed or view
I'm always at the gate
And I'm always late
'Cause there's nothing left to do

And I need somebody
Yes, I need, need somebody
Yes, I need, I need somebody
Now, I know I'm getting old

Strange tunes in my head
I'll think I'll go to bed
I think I'll change the sheets and all
Maybe do some drawing
Do some painting
An antelope across my wall

And I need somebody
Yes, I need, need somebody
Yes, I need anybody
Now, I know I'm getting old

A visitor out on the lawn
His hair all shorn
Is he friend or is he foe?
Is he a man I know?
Is he someone to sow?
Is he someone to say hello?

And I need somebody
Yes, I need, need somebody
Yes, I need, need somebody
Now, I know I'm getting old

So, I'm so confused
I'm so bemused
I think I'll settle down
Lie down on anywhere
Maybe in this chair
Anywhere I just don't care

Because I need somebody
Yes, I need, oh, somebody
Yes, I need anybody
Now, I know I'm getting old

The friend I saw is at the door
He says, "Hello, once more
I met you down the road"
Great long fingers holding out
I want to shout
What's the point because he knows

That I need, I need somebody
Yes, I need somebody
Yes, I need almost anybody
Now, I know I'm getting old

Yes, I need, I need somebody
Yes, I need, I need somebody
Oh, I need almost anybody
Now, I know I'm getting, getting old

Sand All Yellow




What's the matter, baby?
Why do you worry so?
There's no reason to quarrel
No reason to go

If you feel sorry, baby
Then I know why
Somebody's been messing with your mind
And made you cry
And made you cry

I'm the doctor
I can help you along
Give you some sustenance
I'll keep you strong

Come into my surgery
It's on the very top floor
You'll feel so quiet there
You'll want to go and see
And have some more

There's flowers in my garden, baby
But it's alright now
I've saved all the flowers, baby
I've kept them for you

They're in a big Chinese bowl, baby
On the top of the stairs
They match nicely with the curtains
And they look well with the chairs

I've good intentions, baby
I don't mean you no harm
I've given you my word, my baby
I've given you my lucky charm

One forceps
One pair of knives
One pair of goggles, baby
Two glass eyes

So, when you see me, baby
I don't want to see you cry
That would only hurt me, baby
Only make me lie

My intentions are unsure now
I'm all qualified to lie
I have myself a bright white coat
I can help you to fly

Alright, the next patient, Miss Faversham
Is someone we know very well
We saw her out in the garden with the flowers
And she was crying

But she needs help
And I've told her to come to the top floor
Where I reside and sit amongst the magazines
The Novas and the Woman's Owns

Reside with me
'Cause I'm the doctor
Yeah, I'm the doctor

It's a sleepy lagoon
On a tropical island we will go to
No thoughts of cruelty, no hurt or pain

And the coconuts bouncing by
The coconuts bouncing by
And the sand all yellow

And the sand all yellow
And the sand all yellow
And the sand all yellow
And the sand all yellow

Shake My Hand




I've seen you, baby, with another boy
Yes another, only nine years old
Don't you think the difference shows?

I'm only twenty-eight, baby
And I have a little style, alright
I've experienced just a few little things
I could make it in a while

If you let me hold your hand
Shake your hand, hold your hand

Alright, I'm a loser, baby
I don't wear short pants and socks
Don't have a lot of curly hair
Tumbling down in golden locks

Maybe you'll have a way with him
How should I really know?
But if you have a way with me
Then baby, please let it show

Come on
Shake my hand, shake my hand
Shake my hand, hold my hand

I've seen your blood boiling, baby
When I accused you of stealing children
But you're, you're, you don't like the lies
You don't like it, baby, and I put you in the wilderness

Thrown you among the thistles, baby
Down among the brown weeds
To see you running with those youngsters
Makes a smart man bleed

Oh, let me hold your hand
Hold your hand, hold your hand
Hold your hand

Just one little note to you, baby
Written on an exercise book before I go
Little blue one, you never seen before
Lines from the top and lines to the bottom

Written in bright red ink
It says, 'The teacher stinks'
Forty-five and with a boy of nine
She wants to get with somebody who can really do time

And shake her hand
Shake her hand, shake her hand
Shake her hand, hold her hand

Shake her hand, baby, and I'll shake yours
Shake her hand, baby, and I'll shake yours
Shake her hand, baby, and I'll shake yours
Shake her hand

Sign of the Times




Wild palms in the hinterland
Stretches of yellow sand
A blue bird trapped in my hand
It's hard to understand

It must be a sign of the times, times
It must be a sign of the time
Time, time, time, time

My friend can't talk no more
He just gazes at his kitchen floor
Building a boat that will never float
Packing it with animals and bags of oats

Must be, yes, a sign of the times, times
It must be a sign of the times
Sign of the times

Oh, give me a sign, oh, what is the sign?
Oh, what is their line? Oh, a sign, a sign
Any sign, any line, any time
Any sigh, any lie, not mine, not mine

I'm building, what am I building?
I'm working, why am I working?
My hands are clean and never dirty
I wear something and it hurts me

Must be my sign of the times
Must be, yes, my sign of the times
Sign of the times

Must be, give me a sign
Oh, any sign, oh, any sign
Oh, any line, any sign, any rhyme
Any time, not mine, it's not mine

It's not mine, it's not mine
It's not mine, it's not mine

My mother, she knows
I really think she knows
Taken to painting her toes
Taken to wear those odd clothes

Must be a sign of the times, times
Must be a sign of the times, times
Sign of the times

So you can help me
Let me know you can help me
Make it a positive sign
'Cause this face is not really mine

Must be a sign of my mind, mind, mind, mind
Must be a sign of the times
Sign of the time

A sign of the times
My face is not mine
My face is not mine

Sixteen Women




Oh yeah, oh, alright
Well, sixteen women live in my home town
You know that sixteen women live in my home town
Fifteen love me, the other tries to put me down

My mother hates me, she don't call my name
My mother hates me, she don't call my name
Everything that happens, she says I'm to blame

When I go home, I take my bag and I rest
Yes, when I go home, I take my bag and I rest
Well, I talk to my sister and get things off my chest

Yeah, yeah, oh
Well, yeah, boy you're good

Well, Mabel loves me, Lucille hates my name
You know Mabel loves me and Lucille hates my name
My father's crazy, he's about half insane

Sixteen women live in my home town
Sixteen women live in my home town, well yeah
Fifteen love me, the other tries to put me down, down, down

Boy that's good, oh yeah

Sixteen women live in my home town, yeah
Oh, sixteen women live in my home town, yeah
Fifteen love me, the other tries to put me down
Down, down, down, yeah
Others try to put me down

Some Dark Day




They say that women are made of bliss
All lips and eyes to flash
All ears of gold and perfect beauty showing
It's all trash

They say that God has arms of Heaven
Smashing crutches laughing
One hundred weight of fleeces
All chaste for his creation but

They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong

And some dark day
And some dark day
They're going to find they're lying

They say that money makes nasty men
Crushes hearts inside us
They shout out chunks of history
And St. Paul to guide us

I've heard my mother say
"Son, help grown ladies cross the road"
Though she doesn't realize
Grown ladies crush her toes

They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong

And some dark day
And some dark day
They're going to find they're lying

Some loudmouth speaks of perfect sex
All sweating, muscles coming
I don't know where they got the lie
I just see rooms all rocking

When people say, "Shake hands and smile"
I see the beast all hairy
All they see is a golden mirror
A landscape, lakes and fairies but

They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong

And some dark day
And some dark day
And some dark day
They're going to find they're lying

My father says
"You must not know because we know already"
He prefers the greens kept right down
He likes his cakewalk steady

I do believe that school taught me
To remember sticks and lashes
Though people tell me school was nice
All flags and toothy flashes but

They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong

And some dark day
And some dark day
They're going to find they're lying
Come on

Well, okay new boy, hold my hand
Wear the helmet of the dawn
Kiss the smart man close to you
Watch his fist, ooh, here it comes

They say your Vicar wants to help
But that is not true
He's like the rest all in the pen
A pocket's waiting for you

They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong
They're wrong, they're wrong

And some dark day
And some dark day
You're going to find they're lying, okay

Well, soon, it's gonna be summer, baby, soon
Soon, we'll feel the summer winds, yeah
We'll have the sun gleaming on our brown backs, baby

You know soon, we're gonna be so happy, baby
We're gonna dance on the beach
Even out of reach

Come here, baby

Everybody's going to sing
Every bell's going to ring

Oh yes, we're so happy
Everybody's snappy and I love you
And we all are laughing
Baby, soon, baby, baby, soon

Strange Locomotion




Oh yes, now

Strange locomotion
Over the ocean, baby
You can't find no better place
Strange locomotion

If you got the notion, baby
Get on over the ocean
Take yourself a big fat plane
Get some strange locomotion

Oh well, up and down, way off the ground
Strange, strange, strange locomotion
Up and down, way off the ground
Strange, strange, strange locomotion

Way over the ocean, baby
We've left the land and sea
Got some strange locomotion
Oh oh, alright now

Oh well, up and down, round and round
Strange, strange, strange locomotion
Up and down, way off the ground
Strange, strange, strange locomotion

Over the ocean, baby
We found new land, new sea
Strange locomotion

I've got a notion, baby
Take some strange locomotion, baby
It'll be just for you and me
Take some strange locomotion, alright

Strange locomotion, baby
Strange locomotion, baby
Strange locomotion, baby
Strange locomotion, baby

Strange locomotion, baby
Strange locomotion, baby
Strange locomotion, baby

The War Is Over




War is over, baby, fighting's all done
You can put away, baby, the big machine gun
War is over, no use for fighting anymore
Anymore, baby, no, no
War is over, ain't no use for fighting anymore

You can hang up your gloves, baby
There ain't no champion no more
You can go away, baby, lock your old back door

Take a holiday somewhere, somewhere
'Cross the sea, 'cross the sea, without me, baby
Oh, the war is over, baby
It's over, baby, for you and me, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, come on

You can ground the aeroplane, put away the kites
You can take everything about
You can put away the search lights

You don't need no camouflage
You don't need, no, no, no, no, you need nothing, baby
Oh, the war is over, baby
Ain't no use fighting anymore
Anymore, oh, it's all done now, oh, yes

The war is over, baby, yeah, over, baby, yeah
Over, baby, yeah, ain't no use fighting now
Stuff away your machine gun
Put it somewhere, I won't peek

Uggy's Song




Take any city, take any town
You'll always find my sort around
On any door step, any tree
Snoozin' bleary, a man like me

Why should you care?
Why should you share?
Why should you want?
Why should you want a man
A man around who's lookin' like me?

I'm lost and lonely, no money at all
Hopin' someday I can recall
A better day and a better way
Somethin' special to hold on to

Why should you care?
Why should you share?
Why should you want?
Why should you need
A man around lookin', lookin' like me?

So, they told me to move on
Pack my scraps and go
Tell me, where can I go?
Where can I go?

And it's startin' to rain
And it's startin' to pour
Reckon I'll hide in some
Fat old rich man's door

Why should you care?
Why should you share?
Why should you want
A man like me
Oh, a man like me around?

Oh, you know a man like
A man like, a man like, a man like
A man like me around?

Wasting My Time




Oh yeah

Nights and days I waited for you
Waited for your love so true
But I'm wasting my time
Yes, I'm just losing my mind

I'm stuck here with misery
And your love, dear, could set me free
But I'm wasting my time
Yes, I'm just losing my mind

Well, I'm waiting in windows, waiting in doors
Walking across those bedroom floors
But I'm wasting my time
Yes, I'm just losing my mind

Well, give me a chance or give me a break
How much more can a poor boy take?
I'm wasting my time
Yes, I'm just losing my mind

Well, I'm drunk as can be
Your love could set me free
I need, yes I do, a loving so true
But I'm wasting my time
Yes, I'm just losing my mind

Well, can't you understand I need you so?
I never want to let you go
But I'm wasting my time
Yes, I'm just losing my mind

Well, I need you, baby, more and more
But last night, darling, you slammed the door
And I'm wasting my time
Yes, I'm just losing my mind

Well, I'm pleading, sweetheart, oh, don't let me down
I need you baby, need you around
But I'm wasting my time
Yes, I'm just losing my mind
Oh yeah, that's right, it's true

White Horse




White horse, riding across my mind
Wearing a band of gold around your hooves
Collecting the stars, the glint of the stars
In your great and empty eye

The drink I drink is a drink as strong as
The strongest poison in the land
Riding on the back of my horse with his golden band
Who catches the stars in his eye

His great and empty eye
That had never smiled, never noticed me
I would like to think of that he dreamt of me
When he went to sleep at night

That he thought I was the special thing in his life
But to those great eyes, they see nothing
They don't profess poetry
Don't profess insight into me

Now I stand on empty man
Beside the stable door on the stud farm
And the green and gray attendant
Hands me straw, says, "Go feed the horses"

You know, of course he's a dreaming talking horse
Who wears gold bands around his feet
And dreams of stars, and dreams of stars
In his empty eye, in his empty eye

Witch




Witch, she's a witch and everybody knows
She's a witch and everybody knows

Why does she treat me this way?
Why does she often turn and say
"You can go away, I don't want you here today
You can't play, you cannot play"?

Witch, she's a witch and she's breaking my heart
She's a witch and she's breaking my heart

Why does she mooch around the house
Refer to me as, 'That louse'
Say all those awful things to my friends?
It drives me round the bend
She drives me round the bend

Witch, she's a witch and I want to go
She's a witch and I can't be slow

I must rush down the road
With my little bags packed down the road
I must turn and scream at the passersby
"That woman's told me lies
You can see it in her eyes, she always was a liar"

But in another day she was so good
She'd helped me cut the hedge
Even helped collect firewood
But that was when we was poor

Didn't have a thing, now we've got so much
Our hands are smothered in clusters of rings
She's got little trinkets, a little dog with a bell
That ping, ping, ping, ping, stinks

Witch, she's a witch and everybody knows
She's a witch and everybody knows

I cannot stand her friends anymore
I'm going to wipe them across the floor
I'm going to shout abuse as they drive away
I hate their faces anyway, they laugh at me anyway

Witch, she's a witch and leave me alone
She's a witch and she won't leave me alone

She has this little idea about me
She knows all my secrets, you see
She knows what I do in that little room
She says she's going to lock me in it
Trap me in it like a tomb

Another day, she was so kind
Made little comments about the quality of my mind
Said delicious, delicious things about my figure and hair
I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew
She really cared to share the things we had

Now there's too much and that is bad
Now there's too much of everything bad
And look at this, we don't need this
What have you bought that for, we don't want that

These possessions
Possessions are getting on top of us all
Every little thing, my goodness
You don't need golden walls, what about me?

Baby, won't you tell me your name? Yeah
Well, ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze
Baby, won't you tell me your name? Yeah

And it's going right to my brain

Ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze
There's a mountain on the top of my head, there is
Ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze
There's a mountain on the top of my head, right
I keep on wondering
Sometimes I wish I was dead, it's true

Ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze
This pain is breaking me down, down and down
Ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze
This pain is breaking me down
I'm like an old scrapped vehicle
Can't turn my wheels around, oh that's right

Well, ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze, come on
Oh, like a bee
Oh, you strung me, baby
Oh it's true, oh right through the heart

You know this funny little feeling's
Getting on top of my brain

Well, ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze
I'm gonna write a letter to you, oh yeah
Ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze
I'm gonna write a letter to you
Well, declaring my love
And telling you I love you

Ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze
Hoping everything goes right
Well, ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze-ze
Hoping everything goes right
Well, I fancy you around me everyday
And every night and every night, oh yeah

Well, here comes that bee again
Oh yeah, stinging me right through
It's on top of my head
Ze-ze-ze-ze
