I got a little bit of hope Like a soap on a rope Sweeter than sour Gettin' thinner by the hour Fallin' fast and I'm runnin' out of gas Noggin' on your sister smart as Bobby Fisher Still I couldn't get arrested Though I got more hooks Than Madonna got looks Just like that AC/DC song, C'mon baby, shake me all night long All I want to do Is get up early in the morning (Oh I love you baby) And all I gotta say to you Is your love's extra ordinary You're extra ordinary baby Somebody pushed me through the door I've been sleepin' on the floor Thirty one flavors listen to The neighbors through the wall And a deputant ball Use a lot on Visa got a Mona Lisa So much for the late brand 'Cause your money's spent And it's cold inside Just like that Barenaked Ladies song I'm hot like a wasabe when I'm next to your body All I want to do Is get up early in the morning (Oh I love you baby) And all I gotta say to you Is your love's extra ordinary You're extra ordinary baby (Your love's such a sweet thing Your love's such a sweet thing) All I want to do Is get up early in the morning (Oh I love you baby) And all I gotta say to you Is your love's extra ordinary You're extra ordinary baby All I want to do Is get up early in the morning (Oh I love you baby) And all I gotta say to you Is your love's extra ordinary You're extra ordinary
