LYRICS

I met her in the Museum of Paleontology & I make no bones about it.
I said
'If you wish to study dinosaurs, I know a specimen whose interest
is undoubted.
Trapped in a body that is failing me, please alow me to be succint:
I wanna love you whilst we both still have flesh upon our bones
Before we both become extinct.
That's what I told her: "I want to be your lover"
& then I told her twice, "I want to be your lover"
He says he loves you like a sister
Well, I guess that's relative.

He says that he wants to make love to you
But instead of "to" shouldn't that be "with"?

Well, I told you once, "I want to be your lover"
& now I told you twice, Homes: "I want to be your lover"

& so I come to you filled with guilt & self-loathing
& I am praying that your could make me good
& I fall upon your neck just like a vampire.
Yeah, a vampire who faints
at the sight of blood.

Well, I told you once, "I want to be your lover"
This is my C.V. & I've got no-one else to blame,
Yes, I will state it again:
Come & help yourself to
leftovers -
got a little surplus love & affection.
I'm getting cuddly; so won't you cuddle me?
I could be your teddy bear.
I know I ain't no Eligible Bachelor.
This i sno "mouth-watering proposition"
Make no mistake: you're in big trouble little lady
If we start a-huggin' & a-kissin' & a-kissin'
Are you listening?

'Cos I told you once
& then I told you twice & now I've told you three times
& at the risk of repeating myself, I'm gonna say it again:
I want to be your lover.
I want to be your lover.
& now I told you twice: "I want to be your lover"
