Well it's a minor altercation
Despite your hesitation
By all agrees that you will see how we're causing quite a sensation
So publication of needing motivation
Your mother says it's OK outside the subway station
You're taking off your stripes
Even your knees are nice
I'll tease you with a knife until you're screaming for your life
I think so too
And you surrender
Can I spend you up? you're my illegally illegal tender
It takes a lover, it takes a lover
It takes a lover that will love me like no other
It takes a lover, it takes a lover
It takes a lover that knows I love her like no other
Well it's a minor altercation
Despite your hesitation
And apart the contrary and impending accusation
Cinematography that you're willing but happy to see
A scene that stars you and a girl, you're both on top of me
I looked into your eyes
And pushed your buttons and levers
You said you'd see until we agree and kindly said whatever
And you like my loving better
Cause' you said so in a letter, that said return to sender
My illegally illegal tender
It takes a lover, it takes a lover
It takes a lover that will love me like no other
It takes a lover, it takes a lover
It takes a lover that knows I love her like no other
It takes a lover
Two in the pocket is better than three
Two in the pocket is better than three
It's better than three
Two in the pocket is better than three
And three in the pocket is better than four
And five in the pocket is better than six
And put them together then pick up the sticks
It takes a lover, it takes a lover
It takes a lover that will love me like no other
It takes a lover, it takes a lover
It takes a lover that knows I love her like no other
It takes a lover, it takes a lover
It takes a lover that will love me like no other
It takes a lover, it takes a lover
It takes a lover that knows I love her like no other
