[Verse 1]
Rather than I want to hold your hand
I wanna swallow you whole
And I wanna lick you everywhere it's pink
And everywhere you think

Whole-kit-kaboodle in the kitchen sink
[Verse 2]
Heaven's sexy as hell, life is integrated
Goes together so well, and so on

[Verse 3]
Well, now you may think I'm crazy
But I want you to lick my decals off, baby
And I don't want you to be lazy
Cause it's drivin' me crazy
[Verse 4]

It's all about the birds 'n the bees 'n where it went all wrong

'n the earth all goes down on their knees lookin' for a little ease
She stuck out her tongue and the fun begun
She stuck out her tongue and the fun begun
She stuck it out at me, and I just thumbed my nose
And went on washing my clothes
