I've been thinkin' about this for the last three days I don't think that I am deluding myself I don't think that this is just a phase I don't mean to shock you I hope that I am not rushing in I think that this is kind of important I don't know where exactly to begin My whole life has been a constant ailment You can provide a simple remedy Yea, I'm gonna show some vast improvements When you give your love to me And you can trust that I am a worthy recipient And be assured I'll act responsibly I'll treat it like a work of rare and priceless art When you give your love to me So how's about it girlfriend Am I gonna have to twist your arm? Perhaps it's not the most original concept It has a kind of timeless charm You'll have the little birds flyin' around your head And you'll gaze at me dreamily Yea, the whole world will smile and wave When you give your love to me And I will write you a hundred sonnets And every word will rhyme easily And all your friends will be genuinely supportive When you give your love to me I'm sick of hearing about sadness I'm sick of violent crime I'm sick of angry, militant, lesbian feminists I'm sick of imperfect rhyme I've always heard that we should love one another And what a fine example we will be An' maybe we can start a trend or something When you give your love to me And maybe then we'll get our friends together And they'll all get along famously I think that everyone will feel much better When you give you love to me There'll be global peace and religious tolerance Ominous brothers in a world that's free There will be a perfect cosmic harmonic convergence When you give your love to me Oo Oh when you give your love to me Oo Oh Oo Oh when you give your love to me When you give your love to me
