Lyrics
She was a-smitten from the first by a curious fellow
Said I love the way you talk
And with a flounce, she announced it
I love the way that you pronounced it
Marshmallow
So, she liked to sing along to her favorite song
From the year that she was born
See how mysterious her fate is
Get drunk and woke up in the '80s
So speak to me just like you should
Then, you can say those wicked things
And if you want, we'll make it good
Before my mood swings
Well, he looked like one of those who could take off his clothes
Like he would peel a tangerine
No one's been known to decline this
Once you have found out what your sign is
So, speak to me just like you should
Then, you can say those wicked things
And if you want, we'll make it good
Before my mood swings
So, speak to me just like you should
Then, you can say those wicked things
And if you want, we'll make it good
Before my mood swings
So, speak to me just like you should
Then, you can say those wicked things
And if you want, we'll make it good
Before my mood swings
