I met a new guy and was all excited about the prospect of our first date, so I wrote a song about it. The song has musical quotes from the Beatles, The Village People, and even “My Sharona”, but it also has a passage I stole, er, borrowed from George Frederic Handel.
I always wanted to be top dog,
King of the world, high on the hog
Some day I’m gonna be rollin’ in dough,
Big-shot brass, own a Van Gough
But I know that won’t impress you
I don’t want to second-guess you,
So I’m on a mission, my greatest ambition
Is to prove to you what my heart can do.
I’m gonna fall in love, I’m gonna fall in love,
I’m gonna fall in love, with you.
I never was much of a hotshot stud,
Devil-may-care, loaded for bear
Look at this guy he’s packin’ heat,
Ace of the base, boss of the beach
Do you think life’s greatest goal is
To be a macho macho man?
Well I beg to differ; my challenge is stiffer:
To fall in love and that’s my plan.
I’m gonna fall in love, I’m gonna fall in love,
I’m gonna fall in love, with you.
Your hands, your skin, that cocksure grin,
Your glance, those pants! Get out!
I’m gonna fall in love
With all of the above,
And you’ll fall in love right back no doubt.
I’m gonna fall in love, I’m gonna fall in love,
I’m gonna fall in love, with you.
I always wanted to hit for power,
Look great in the showers, be MVP.
I always gotta be the go-to guy
Do or die, on TV
But all this swagger crap is worthless, when
I wanna hold your hand
That fire in my belly has turned into jelly
I want something much more grand.
I’m gonna fall in love, I’m gonna fall in love,
I’m gonna fall in love, with you.
