Lyrics
As a tot
When I trot-
Ted in little velvet panties
I was kissed
By my sist-
Ers, my cousins, and my aunties
Sad to tell
It was hell
An inferno worse than Dante's
So my dear, I swore
"Never, nevermore"
On my list
I insist-
Ed that kissing must be crossed out
Now I find
I was blind
And oh, mister, how I've lost out!
I could cry
Salty tears
Where have I
Been all these years?
Little wow
Tell me now
How long has this been going on?
There were chills
Up my spine
And some thrills
I can't define
Listen, sweet
I repeat
How long has this been going on?
Oh, I feel that I could melt
Into heaven I'm hurled
I know how Columbus felt
Finding another world
Kiss me once
Then once more
What a dunce
I was before
What a break
For heaven's sake
How long has this been going on?
Dear when in your arms I creep
That divine rendezvous
Don't wake me if I'm asleep
Let me dream that it's true
Kiss me twice
Then once more
That makes thrice
Let's make it four
What a break
For heaven's sake
How long has this been going on?
How long has this been going on?
