Rumpled Romeo

By dean friedman

He was a rumpled romeo with a 10 speed bike and a stereo,
She was a dauntless damsel in a dress with her lovelight all aglow.
He picked her up in the parking lot with a whole bouquet of forget-me-nots,
Two tickets and a gift wrapped box of oreo's. she said,

Oooh. love is real.
Nothing you can do or say will ever change the way i feel,
Oooh. love is real

They went to a picture show,
The lights went on and they got up to go.
He said "well" and she said "i don't know."
He put the car in gear and she sat very near.
He turned the wheel and she whispered in his ear so soft and low. she said,

Oooh. love is real.
Nothing you can do or say will ever change the way i feel,
Oooh. love is real

They were headed for their destiny.
They were headed for a place the ground would yield.
They were headed for the baseball field.

And as they fell through space, the moonlight touched her face.
They found a quiet place where teenage lovers go.
They kissed and shed their clothes,
She took his hand and held him close,
Underneath the bleachers in the dark where the tall grass grows. she said,

Oooh. love is real.
Nothing you can do or say can ever change the way i feel,
Oooh. love is real.

I'm not as strong as i would like to be.
Sometimes the current pulls me out to sea.
You're always there to rescue me.

I depend on you.
I depend on you.
When i need someone to see me through,
I depend on you.

Sometimes i sit around for days and days.
You try and tell me that it's just a phase.
You help me see the error of my ways.

I depend on you.
I depend on you.
When i need someone to see me through,
I depend on you.

I come in soaking wet from the storm.
You smile and tell me i'm just true to form.
I touch your body and it feels so warm.

I depend on you.
I depend on you.
When i need someone to see me through,
I depend on you.

Hey larry, can i borrow your car ?
I got a date tonight with a movie star,
She's got sexy legs and a perfect bod,
She's got such a pretty face, i swear to god,

Don't worry, it'll be all right,
We'll have a bite to eat and then we'll dance all night,
And when the sun comes up i'm gonna take her home,
And we'll kiss goodnight and i'll walk away alone,

She's not your ordinary girl,
She's much more wonderful, (she's wonderful)
I wouldn't change her for the world,
She is so extra special,

Hey larry, you know it's just what it seems,
I thought i'd never find her but she's the girl of my dreams,
And every time i see her it's like the first time,
I get nervous and i stammer and my temperature climbs,

Gee, larry, do you know what she said ?
She said "i always wanted someone with a lot of bread,
And then you came along and you saw right through,
And you stole my heart, so you'll just have to do,"

She's not your ordinary girl,
She's much more wonderful, (she's wonderful)
I wouldn't change her for the world,
She is so extra special.

Hey larry, you're a real pal,
I don't know how i'll ever thank you but i can't right now,
I've got to change my clothes, i've got to take a shower,
I got to pick her up in half an hour,

So listen, larry, see i got to run,
But what i'm tryin' to to tell you is that she's the one,
And i'll be real careful like i've always been,
And i'll see you tomorrow,
And thanks again,

She's not your ordinary girl,
She's much more wonderful, (she's wonderful)
I wouldn't change her for the world,
She is so extra special.

Hey larry, can i borrow your car?
I got a date tonight with a movie star...

Tonight while you were at the show,
I saw a u.f.o.
I was surprised to see it land.
But when they asked me to go,
I said, "no, i can't", i said,

I will never leave you.
I will never stray.
I will never leave you.
I will never go away.

The little man said, "how can this be?
Think of all the wondrous things you'd see,
The secrets of the universe,"
"thanks", i said, "but, not for me." you see,

I will never leave you.
I will never stray.
I will never leave you.
I will never go away.

He looked at me, he shook his head.
He climbed aboard his ship, away he sped.
And as he sailed across the sky,
I'm pretty sure he waved goodbye. but,

I will never leave you.
I will never stray.
I will never leave you.
I will never go away

I wanna have a big backyard.
I wanna have a mailbox and swings.
I wanna have a welcome mat and a porcelain cat,
And a doorbell that rings.
I wanna have a burglar alarm
To keep my family from harm,

I wanna be marginal middle class,
I wanna be respectable middle class,
I wanna hire a kid to cut the grass,
I wanna be marginal middle class.

I wanna join the local lodge.
I wanna have a two car garage.
I wanna do a high school play with the p.t.a.
I wanna have a new dodge.
I wanna have a steady job.
I wanna eat corn on the cob.

I wanna be marginal middle class,
I wanna be respectable middle class,
I wanna hedge my bets, i wanna cover my ass,
I wanna be marginal middle class.

I don't wanna have a lot of dough,
I just wanna be your average joe.
I wanna have just enough to see an occasional broadway show.

I wanna have a swimming pool.
I wanna have a couple of kids.
I wanna have a motorbike and a dog named mike
And two guinea pigs.
I wanna have a library card.
I don't wanna have to work too hard.

I wanna be "honey, can we eat out tonight ?" middle class,
I wanna be "daddy, roger punched me on the nose." middle class,
I wanna live right near the overpass,
I wanna be marginal middle class.
I wanna be marginal middle class.
