A Big Surprise
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
No use in our pretending we don't know what we know
We know a lot of things
I know each muscle on your back and every toe
But you've held out on me, I can tell from your eyes
Disguising the ace that you hold
I want a big surprise tonite
A really big surprise tonite
It's boy meets girl and here we go once again
Where is that Yankee ingenuity
Somebody told me how the motion picture would end
I turned and glared at them
And then I read the way the world was going to end
With a whimpering sound, not a banging away
I'm sorry I gave it away
I want a big surprise tonite
A really big surprise tonite
It's boy meets girl and here we go once again
I want a big surprise tonite
A really big surprise tonite
It's boy meets girl and here we go once again
Where is that Yankee ingenuity
I want a big surprise tonite
A really big surprise tonite
It's boy meets girl and here we go once again
Where is that Yankee ingenuity
Break the rules and make a fool out of me
Where is that Yankee ingenuity right now
I want a big surprise tonite
A really big surprise tonite
