Well, the rainman comes with his magic wand
|
And the judge says, "Mona can't have no bond."
|
And the walls collide, Mona cries,
|
And the rainman leaves in the wolfman's disguise.
|
|
I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man.
|
I wanna be your lover, baby,
|
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
|
|
Well, the undertaker in his midnight suit
|
Says to the masked man, "Ain't you cute!"
|
Well, the mask man he gets up on the shelf
|
And he says, "You ain't so bad yourself."
|
|
I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man.
|
I wanna be your lover, baby,
|
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
|
|
Well, jumpin' Judy can't go no higher.
|
She had bullets in her eyes, and they fire.
|
Rasputin he's so dignified,
|
He touched the back of her head an' he died.
|
|
I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man.
|
I wanna be your lover, baby,
|
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
|
|
Well, Phaedra with her looking glass,
|
Stretchin' out upon the grass.
|
She gets all messed up and she faints?
That's 'cause she's so obvious and you ain't.
|
|
I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man.
|
I wanna be your lover, baby,
|
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
