She said, "I'll tickle your fancy"
She said, "I'll make you feel fine
"We'll keep it our little secret
"Just do it this one time."
She said, "No need to romance me
"I'll be right here at your whim.
"I will help you sleep easy;
"I am your new best friend."
Chorus
"You can hide me in your pocket,
"You can forget my name
"Do it on your own time,
"There's no need to feel shame.
"No strings attached,
"This isn't love, it's a game."
You kept me guessing your schedule
Said you were just working late
I'm breaking down in the kitchen
Are your eyes blue or grey?
Chorus
Wah wah wah wah wah wah wah
Wah wah wah wah wah wah
Wah wah wah wah wah wah wah
Wah wah wah wah wah wah
Wah wah wah wah,
Wah wah wah wah wah wah wah wah wah waaah

Huckleberry

Fresh sheets but the pillow's stained
Windowsill dewy and streaked with rain
I always thought my mood controlled the weather
Nose pressed against the window pane,
She hit a parked car, didn't say a thing
Tried to get me to sing along to Apple Bottom Jeans
Chorus:
Stay with me my love, my baby
Who will keep me dry?
Stay with me my Huckleberry;
Leave me and I'll die, I'll die
Putting blankets on his car
Making arrows out of stars,
Oh, the arrow's there,
But it's got nothing to point to
Waterfalls and spider bites,
How he carried me two miles
Telling jokes his dad told him,
They're stupid, yeah, but they made me grin, oh
Chorus
While I beg and plead for you
To love me like you used to do
The heart that beats for you receives the truth
That this is how it must conclude
Chorus

Try to keep your head on straight
Keep your heart off of your sleeve
If it's love, it's worth the wait
So why not let it be
Stay your mind on things above
There's nothing you can do right now
If it's God, and if it's love,
You couldn't stop it anyhow
But, oh, wouldn't it be nice to love somebody
Oh, wouldn't it be nice to love
So, I will let the dice fall down
And land where they may
Keep my cards close to my chest
Until I'm certain I can play
But, oh, wouldn't it be nice to love somebody
Oh, wouldn't it be nice to love
Oooooooh, ooh ooooooh's.

Let Somebody In

Hold tight, brighter days are just ahead
Don't fight, you know this is for the best
A new day is about to begin,
To love you've got to let somebody in
Chin up, it's the darkest 'fore the dawn
Loose grip, there's no need to be so strong
There's still hope for you yet, you're just a kid
But to love you've gotta let somebody in
Love is hard, it isn't easy
Maybe in part that's why it's appealing
Love is hard, it isn't easy
Maybe in part, that's why it's so freeing
Break free, nothing's stopping you now
You'll see, wipe those worries from your brow
Stop playing games you know you'll never win
'Cause to love, you've gotta let somebody in
