(By an accident of birth, my adolescence took place in the early  seventies instead of the early sixties. But now I'm ready to  make up for all those beach parties I missed. Let's twist! - RR)  Life with you's an endless playground  So many games from which to choose  But it don't fill me with childish joy  It only brings me the blues  I used to think stability would only makes us dull  But your moods are so erratic that I'd welcome such a lull  And I don't know how much more of this my fragile heart can take  I'm not as strong as you may think and one day I could break  Ah...  Because you've got me on an Emotional Rollercoaster  You lift me up, you bring me down  And all the time my heart is spinning round and round and round  But it still feels better than being alone on the ground  Life with you is never boring  It's more like Disneyland  Though the thrills are only momentary  You could never call it bland  One day you say you love me and your passion rings so true  And the next day you ignore me, or you tell me that we're through  Each time I think you're gone for good, but you keep coming back  I cannot take much more of this before I'm gonna crack  Ah...  Because you've got me on an Emotional Rollercoaster  You lift me up, you bring me down  And all because you're drooling over some new boy you've found  But it still feels better than being alone on the ground  Wah-ooh, shoo-bop shoo-bop, shoo-bop shoo-bop, ooh  Wah-ooh, shoo-bop shoo-bop, shoo-bop shoo-bop, ooh  Already it's been going on for way too long a time  If I take any more of this I know I'll lose my mind  Because you've got me on an Emotional Rollercoaster  You lift me up, you bring me down  And all it takes is one kind word to turn my heart around  But it still feels better than being alone on the ground  Life with you can be a funhouse  Other times it frightens me  I never know just what is coming next  My Coney Island fantasy  But I'm hoping there will be a change  One day very soon  And we'll sail into the Tunnel of Love  Beneath a crescent moon  But right now you've got me on an Emotional Rollercoaster  You lift me up, you bring me down  And all the time my heart is spinning round and round and round  But it still feels better than being alone on the ground
