Lyrics

As a tot

When I trot-

Ted in little velvet panties

I was kissed

By my sist-

Ers, my cousins, and my aunties

Sad to tell

It was hell

An inferno worse than Dante's

So my dear, I swore

"Never, nevermore"

On my list

I insist-

Ed that kissing must be crossed out

Now I find

I was blind

And oh, mister, how I've lost out!

I could cry

Salty tears

Where have I

Been all these years?

Little wow

Tell me now

How long has this been going on?

There were chills

Up my spine

And some thrills

I can't define

Listen, sweet

I repeat

How long has this been going on?

Oh, I feel that I could melt

Into heaven I'm hurled

I know how Columbus felt

Finding another world

Kiss me once

Then once more

What a dunce

I was before

What a break

For heaven's sake

How long has this been going on?

Dear when in your arms I creep

That divine rendezvous

Don't wake me if I'm asleep

Let me dream that it's true

Kiss me twice

Then once more

That makes thrice

Let's make it four

What a break

For heaven's sake

How long has this been going on?

How long has this been going on?
