lyrics

Got a love story that I put on a shelf,
listen up, I introduce myself.

I'm a time-time-traveler, tick and tock,
I don't own a telephone or a pair of socks,
but those in the know will tell you I'm a fox,
because I never miss an opportunity when it knocks.

Hey baby, hey.

Madame le Guitare, she's been riding with me,
everywhere that I am, that's where we'll be,
strumming on your corner, singing songs about
being free.

And you kinda look like a bear, but you're a modern man.
Freaking like Buddha on the DJ stand,
you like to smell nice and be held by a woman's hand.
Honey, you know I can.

Hey baby, hey.

We weren't looking for love, no, just to get ----,
but in the course of our laying, guess a love got made.
The future got so bright I had to wear my shades
and I kept them clean, so the shine won't fade.

Then I was eating breakfast with the Queen of Hearts
and just 'cause you don't wake up don't mean we can't start
because I'm hungry enough to eat the horse and the cart,
if I came back to bed I'd have to tear you apart.

Baby baby baby baby, do you like it?

You're a sweet boy toy, say you love me so,
and you're gonna gonna miss me, oh, when I go,
so are you going my way, babe?
No? That's all right, I didn't think so.

I didn't mean to confuse, just had to lose myself.
You can see I left a few clues.
If you can follow along, if you can get footloose,
you'll find me right here
and I'll be singing the blues.
Singing the blues.
Just singing the blues.
We'll be singing the blues.
