I met her in the Museum of Paleontology

& I make no bones about it.

I said 'If you wish to study dinosaurs,

I know a specimen whose interest is undoubted.

Trapped in a body that is failing me,

please alow me to be succint:

Before we both become extinct.

That's what I told her: "I want to be your lover"

& then I told her twice, "I want to be your lover"

He says he loves you like a sister

Well, I guess that's relative.

He says that he wants to make love to you

But instead of "to" shouldn't that be "with"?

Well, I told you once, "I want to be your lover"

& then I told her twice, "I want to be your lover"

& so I come to you filled with guilt & self-loathing

& I am praying that your could make me good

& I fall upon your neck just like a vampire.

Yeah, a vampire who faints at the sight of blood.

Well, I told you once, "I want to be your lover"

& then I told her twice, "I want to be your lover"

This is my C.V. & I've got no-one else to blame,

Yes, I will state it again:

Come & help yourself to leftovers -

got a little surplus love & affection.

I'm getting cuddly; so won't you cuddle me?

I could be your teddy bear.

I know I ain't no Eligible Bachelor.

This i sno "mouth-watering proposition"

Make no mistake: you're in big trouble little lady

If we start a-huggin' & a-kissin' & a-kissin'

Are you listening?

'Cos I told you once

& then I told you twice & now I've told you three times

& at the risk of repeating myself, I'm gonna say it again:

I want to be your lover.

I want to be your lover.

& now I told you twice: "I want to be your lover"
