As a boy I would stand
In awe of the sight of the band
Criss and crossing the land
The lights and the clapping of hands
As a boy, as a boy, as a boy
I see things
As a boy, as a boy, as a boy
I see things
And I'm throwing pennies
That belong
To the bank of your heart
The bank of your heart
I wish it could be mine...
Later on as a man
I'm doing the best that I can
I imagine your lips
My hands on the side of your hips
As a boy, as a boy, as a boy
I see things
As a boy, as a boy, as a boy
I see things
And I'm throwing pennies
That belong
To the bank of your heart
The bank of your heart
I wish it could be mine...
IN LOVE
Picture you naked
With a pen and an eraser
And a piece of paper
Down by the equator
Hopping atop the backs
Of giant alligators
Rifling through craters
I work as a waiter
So I would wait up
Till the streetlights luminated
Our bodies gyrated
Neon entertainment
And I'll keep some for now
And save the rest for later
Rumbling radiator
Peaceful gladiator...
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby
I sing cause I'm in love
Undress you in my mind
And press your breasts to my chest
Our arms intertwine, yeah
I can feel your caress
A game of pick up sticks
With sweet and sultry whispers
You're rubbling on my whiskers
I'm blowing on your cinders
And we can laze all day
Trade kisses in the park, yeah
Till long after dark, yeah
Kindling and spark, yeah
And it's a great big world
And there's no way around it
I've been looking for a cure
And just maybe I found it
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, I sing cause I'm in love...
Picture you naked
With a pencil and some paper
And a new eraser
Down by the equator
And I would shiver
I would shake and I would grin, yeah
You tell me that I'm thin, yeah
But it's the skin I'm in, yeah
Shimmy down your street
Till I reach your apartment
Dance across your floor
And waltz across your carpet
And it's a great big world
And we all stand atop it
Love is the glue
That keeps all of us from falling off it
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, I sing cause I'm in love
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, you're my baby
You're my baby, I sing cause I'm in love...
I sing cause I'm in love...
