|
|
It's just another Saturday night
|
livin' in the 90's
|
with Mr. Almost, not Mr. Right
|
tell me...
|
where is the moonlight and
|
champagne and roses
|
god knows it's the way love should be...
|
livin' in the 90's
|
|
I've got you not quite under my skin
|
sorry, Mr. Porter
|
and when we dance beguines
|
don't begin darling,
|
you woo me with faxes,
|
I shelter your taxes but
|
is this any way to fall in love?
|
|
I go to lunch and schmooze with your ex
|
tense and superficial
|
two calm and cool emotional
|
wrecks brother...
|
significant other, I feel like your mother and
|
is this anyway to fall in love?
|
|
My analyst said
|
girl you better get smart
|
chivalry's dead, so think with your head
|
and not with your heart
|
but somewhere deep down inside
|
there's a feeling that can't be denied
|
when push comes to shove
|
tell me what about love?
|
Your lawyer sends me papers to sign
|
isn't it romantic?
|
my lawyer warns me I should decline
|
tell me...
|
where is the moonlight and
|
champagne and roses
|
is this anyway to fall in love?
|
|
My analyst stressed
|
"lady, this could take years"
|
he says I'm depressed from having
|
suppressed
|
my innermost fears
|
and so I pay him too much
|
in an effort at feeling in touch
|
it's all so complex
|
and it's all about sex?!
|
|
When did romance become declasse?
|
livin' in the 90's
|
when did we make "I love you" passe?
|
tell me...
|
where is the moonlight and champagne and
|
roses, dear,
|
is this anyway to fall in love?
|
