lyrics

I’m blowing kisses to my new found friend
When she goes home I still miss her
It’s not an issue that she likes other men
She blows my nose with her tissue

She throws all my worries from the front seat to the back
And we drive to places never cautious if we go off track
And she’ll run right into trouble without too much care
Now I’m doing what I never thought I’d dare do

I do the weeding while she just does the lawn
We take in turns with the dishes
Blows out the candles with just one single blow
And she won’t tell me her wishes

We get together when we finish all our work
Not noticing what other people do
When going gets too tough I pull on her black hair
And she screams and yells until everything is cool

Went to the river and I pushed her right in
And she scared off all the fishes
Look through the window of my school teacher’s house
He’s in the bath with his missus

She throws all my worries from the front seat to the back
And we drive to places never cautious if we go off track
And she’ll run right into trouble without too much care
Now I’m doing what I never thought I’d dare do
