It's so romantic
The neighborhood's littered with white gloves The flowers were hand picked They're taping up paper doves And it's hard to think When everything's red and pink It's hard to eat when everything's sweet I guess it's just the perfect time to send some roses And touch their noses And buy them things Because it's such a tender time for all the ladies With all those babies Wearing their wings Could you be mine And hot stuff and maybe and foxy and fine Swallow your red hots And order the fancy wine And if please Just bring me some honey I'll send for the bees You throw your rice It feeds the mice I guess it's just the perfect time to send some roses And touch their noses And buy them things Because it's such a tender time for all the ladies With all those babies Wearing their wings You've gotta run They hate it when you're too quiet And it's always fun To close up until they buy it I guess it's just the perfect time to send some roses And touch their noses And buy them things Because it's such a tender time for all the ladies With all those babies Wearing their wings |

On the way to work one morning
Down the path along side the lake A tender hearted woman Found a poor half-frozen snake His pretty colored skin Had been all frosted with the dew "Poor thing" she cried, "I'll take you in Aand I'll take care of you." Take me in tender woman Take me in for heaven's sake Take me in tender woman Sighed the Snake She wrapped him up all cozy In a comforter of silk And laid him by the fireside With some honey and some milk She hurried home from work that night And as soon as she arrived She found that pretty snake she'd taken in had been revived. Take me in tender woman Take me in for heaven's sake Take me in tender woman Sighed the Snake She clutched him to her bosom "You're so beautiful" she cried "But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died." Well she stroked his pretty skin again And kissed him really tight, Instead of saying thanks, the snake gave her a vicious bite. Take me in tender woman Take me in for heaven's sake Take me in tender woman Sighed the Snake "I saved you!" cried the woman "And you've bitten me but why?" "You know your bite is poisonous And now I'm gonna die." "Ha shut up, silly woman." Said that reptile with a grin. "You knew darn well I was a snake before you took me in." Take me in tender woman Take me in for heaven's sake Take me in tender woman Sighed the Snake Take me in tender woman Sighed the Snake Take me in tender woman Sighed the Snake. |

Standing waiting for a man to show
Wide eyed one eye fixed on the door This waiting's killing me It's wearing me down Day in day out My feet are burning holes in the ground Darkness warmer than a bedroom floor Want someone to hold me close forever more I'm a sleeping dog But you can't tell When I'm on the prowl Run like hell You know it makes sense Don't think about it Life and death are just things you do when you're bored Say fear's a man's best friend Say fear's a man's best friend Say fear's a man's best friend When you add it up it brings you down You add it up it brings you down Home is living like a man on the run Trails leading nowhere, where to my son? We're already dead Not yet in the ground Take my helping hand I'll show you around You know it makes sense Don't think about it Life and death are just things you do when you're bored Say fear's a man's best friend Say fear's a man's best friend Say fear's a man's best friend When you add it up it brings you down You add it up it brings you down |
