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
