Happiness hit me on the first day that we met
|
She was sitting in my kitchen with a face I can't forget
|
She was looking my direction and calling with her eyes
|
I was trying to do an interview and telling them all lies
|
Last year in the summer with a tiffany lamp over her head
|
|
They were asking what I thought about the 50's rock n roll
|
Then they got into their limousine and fell into a hole
|
I moved into the kitchen and I quickly fell in love
|
The warden came along and asked me what I was thinking of
|
Last year in the summer with a tiffany lamp over her head
|
|
Well I grabbed her by the hand and with a few things I could
|
The warden said "You're leaving, well, you better leave for good!"
|
I made it to Tasmania to buy a devil dog
|
We were met by a young handsome prince, who turned into a frog
|
Last year in the summer with a tiffany lamp over her head
|
|
Now we're living out in Malibu the ocean by our side
|
Laying in the sunshine drifting with the tide
|
But happiness had hit me on the first day that we met
|
She was sitting in my kitchen with a face I can't forget
|
Last year in the summer with a tiffany lamp over her head
|
Over her head
