I'd like to wake up with you early in the morning   Or stay up late, just playin' records on your phonograph   I'd like to get to know your mother and your father   Maybe just once, pretend to be somebody's better half   And I would like to tell the very first lie      I'd like to ignore all my friends   And spend my time with you   Maybe shake your tambourine      I'd like to do the sorts of things   That you and I could do   We could 'most anything   And I would like to tell the very first lie      I'd like to get to know   Your family and friends you know   Maybe pick you up from work   I'd like to do the sorts of things   That you and I could do 'til it hurts      I'd like to wake up with you early in the morning   Or stay up late, just playin' records on your phonograph   I'd like to get to know your mother and your father   Maybe just once, pretend to be somebody's better half   And I would like to tell the very first lie
