Lately I've been thinking

That this world keeps on shrinking

And it just keeps getting smaller every day

And last time I checked

I was about the size of an insect.

And with just about as much to say

One look into those pretty green eyes, dear

Tells me, 'I'm hooked'.

And it comes as no surprise, dear.

Oh, no!

I know, I've been walking around here

like a zombie

But I'd say, 'I'm happy most of the time, dear

Most of the time, dear

So why am I so teary eyed?

Never less than mystified

So impressed with everything you do

You could hoot and holler

You can wear a starched white collar

But there's just no way of gettin' over you

Cuz one look into those pretty green eyes, dear

Tells me, 'I'm hooked.'

It's really no surprise, dear

Oh, no!

I know, I've been walking around here

like a zombie

But I'd say, 'I'm happy most of the time, dear

Most of the time, dear

I can just remember the 14th of November

The year of the dog and rightly so

Choking on the atmosphere,

screamin' get me out of here

There's too much goin' on and I just don't know

But I think I've seen the worst of it

I'd say I'm quite well versed in it

So I think I'll lay 'em down and call your bluff

The taste of blood upon my lips,

the heavenly sway of your teenage hips,

nothing in this world comes close enough

One look into those pretty green eyes, dear,

Tells me, 'I'm hooked'

I don't look surprised, dear

Oh, yeah!

It came out of the clear blue sky, dear,

and it struck me

I'd say, 'I'm happy most of the time, dear

Most of the time, dear
