Lyrics

Dancing in dorm sixty two forgetting you She laughed saying I’m crazy without a clue I sighed looked in her eyes and held her tight Baby maybe you can save me if only tonight

She said baby when ain’t hot hot I said simple my dear till it’s not

We blew up the latex gloves making odd balloons In the corner gathered beer sipping goons I twirled you under the magical mirror ball It was there and then that I knew I had it all

She said baby when ain’t hot hot I said simple my dear till it’s not

The grand leader of the band didn’t understand If I only I had a love song we’d be in demand I said sir for all its worth I got a simple tune I stole the melody from dogs barking at the moon

She said baby when ain’t hot hot I said simple my dear till it’s not I said when are the good times forgot She said simple baby till it’s not

And the tuba went oomph bah oomph op I was halfway in I couldn’t stop And the tuba went oomph bah oomph op I climbed Mount Olympus to the top

Hera was cursing Zeus who was running loose I needed an ace but I was delt the deuce I said we live only to die so what’s the use She said go fetch me another cup of electric juice

She said baby when ain’t hot hot I said simple my dear till it’s not I said when are the good times forgot She said simple baby till it’s not

The chorus! That harmony on the ‘baby’ is simply the best thing I’ve heard all fawm … thanks!

Thank you! When I first read this lyric from @johnkaniecki I immediately heard it in my head for the chorus and I'm very pleased he kindly let me play!

Well done, Rose and John. Catchy as heck and fun, fun, fun!

Great imagery here! And the harmonies are great!

Thank you for your wonderful song.

The chorus really jumps out in this song - I think the melody is catch and the harmony adds a lot to it. The double-length bridge is really neat too, with an almost rap like quality. The rest of the song flows very smoothly, the prosody sounds excellent. Well done to both of you

Midi tuba had me smiling at the bridge 😀 These lyrics just flow so well with the music, it was meant to be this song! Very nice arrangement and I love the vocal harmonies 💚

this is the perfect song for a roadtrip makes me long for summer. Very nice vibe. Makes me dance about the living room.
