Day after day

I will walk and I will play

But the day after today

I will stop

And I will start

Why can't I get just one kiss?

Why can't I get just one kiss?

Believe me there's some things that I wouldn't miss

But I look at your pants and I need a kiss!

Why can't I get just one screw?

Why can't I get just one screw?

Believe me I know what to do!

But something won't let me make love to you.

Why can't I get just one fuck?

Why can't I get just one fuck?

I guess it's got something to do with luck!

But I waited my whole life for just one...

Day after day

I get angry

And I will say

That the day

Is in my sight

When I'll take a bow

And say goodnight.

Oh my my mymymy mo mo mum

Have you kept your eye, your eye on your son?

I know you've had problems

You're not the only one

When your sugar left, he left you on the run.

Oh my my mymymy mo mo mum

Take a look now at what your boy has done

He's walkin' around like he's #1

He went downtown and he got him a gun.

So don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me

Don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me

You know you've got my sympathy

But don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me

[repeat]

Broken down kitchen at the top of the stairs

Can I mix in with your affairs?

Share a smoke, make a joke

Grasp and reach for a leg of hope.

Words to memorize

Words hypnotize

Words make my mouth exercise

Words all fail the magic prize

Nothin' I can say when

I'm in your thighs

Mo my my mymymy mo my mother

I would love to love you, lover

City is restless, it's ready to pounce

Here in your bedroom, ounce for ounce

[repeat]

I'm givin' you decision to make

Things to lose, things to take

Just as he's about ready to cut it up

She said,

"Wait a minute, honey, I'm gonna

Add it up."

Oh

Add it up!

Add it up!

Add it up!

Add it up!

[repeat]

Day after day

I get angry

And I will say

That the day

Is within my sight

When I'll take a bow

And say goodnight

Goodnight
