Verse 1
I saw her in the rightest way
Lookin’ like Anne Hathaway
Laughin’ while she hit her pen and coughed, and coughed
And then she came up to my knees
Beggin’, “Baby, would you please
Do the things you said you’d do to me, to me?”

Chorus
Oh, won’t you kiss me on the mouth and love me like a sailor?
And when you get a taste, can you tell me, what’s my flavor?
I don’t believe in God, but I believe that you’re my savior
My mom says that she’s worried, but I’m covered in His favor
And when we’re gettin’ dirty, I forget all that is wrong
I sleep so I can see you, ’cause I hate to wait so long
I sleep so I can see you, and I hate to wait so long

And we can run away to the walls inside your house
I can be the cat, baby, you can be the mouse
And we can laugh off things that we know nothin’ about
We can go forever or until you wanna sit it out
