[Verse 1]
Arrange my books in order
Make up some nice stories to amuse you
Make things look smart and easy
Shape up the place
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Hungry for the meeting
The dinner we'll be eating
Wine that we'll be drinking
And kinky thoughts I'm thinking
All because of you
[Chorus]
And now I've found a partner
No one can be happier than I am
And now I've found a new friend
No one can be happier than me
[Verse 2]
Prepare a meal with candles
Sweet wine and strings chosen for the purpose
Then take a bath with bubbles (bubbles)
Shape up my face
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Eager for the meeting
The dinner we'll be eating
Wine that we'll be drinking
And kinky thoughts I'm thinking
All because of you
[Chorus]
And now I've found a partner
No one can be happier than I am
And now I've found a new friend
No one can be happier than me
[Outro]
Happier than me
Happier than me
Happier than me
