Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I love my car
I admit today I've gone too far
To enamor myself of my little motor car
[Verse 2]
I love my dog
I love my pussy cat, I love the rat
That lives under the floor and makes his bed from novelettes
[Verse 3]
I wish I could say the same for you
The day will come soon when I look in your eyes
But I won't see you
[Verse 4]
I've got a head like a soaking sponge
I've got a tongue like a little slug
I won't be bugged by trivia
[Verse 5]
I love my Carl
I love my Brian, my Dennis, and my Al
I can even find it in my heart to love Mike Love
[Verse 6]
I wish I could say the same for you
The day will come soon when I look in your eyes
To see you smiling
[Verse 7]
I wish I could say the same for you
The day will come soon when I look in your eyes
But I won't see you
