She broke down and cried
|
At the strip mall acupuncturist
|
While the world went on outside
|
|
The Chinese doctor took her arm,
|
Gazed at the floor and read her wrist
|
For the secrets in her life
|
|
"Here's your medicine," she said
|
"If you do not smile at him, then someone else will."
|
You hold that thought
|
And I'll hold that thought too
|
|
Ah ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
|
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
|
|
I was shown the thirty-six
|
Ways I'm not available
|
On a simple, easy chart
|
|
Later on that evening
|
On the beach in Santa Monica
|
It was a very risky start
|
|
Suppose the stupid chart is right
|
In a year will you still feel the same way?
|
Ah, well, you hold that thought
|
And I'll hold that thought too
|
|
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
|
Ah, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
|
Ahh, ahh
|
|
Did you ever see the film
|
Where a man is givin' spectacles
|
To make the world look upside-down?
|
|
He falls about the place
|
But in time he somehow readjusts
|
And when they take the glasses off
|
The eyes he's always had see sky below him
|
And he falls again
|
|
Ah, but you hold that thought
|
And I'll hold that thought
|
You hold that thought
|
And I'll hold that thought
|
You hold that thought
|
And I'll hold that thought
|
|
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
|
Ooooh
|
