Violent Femmes - Add It Up

Add it Up

Day after day, I will walk, and I will play.
But the day, after today, I will stop, and I will start.

Why can't I get just one kiss?
Why can't I get just one kiss?
Believe me there's somethings I wouldn't miss,
but I look at your pants and I need a kiss.

Why can't I get just one screw?
Why can't I get just one screw?
Baby I know what to do,
but something won't let me make love to you.

Why can't I get just one fuck?
Why can't I get just one fuck?
Guess its' got something to do with luck,
but I've waited my whole life for just one...

Day after day I get angry and I will say
that the day is in my sight,
take a vow to say good night.
Oh ma ma ma ma mo ma mum
Have you kept an eye, and eye on your son.
I know you've got problems,
Your not the only one, when your sugar left
he left you on run.

Oh ma ma ma ma mo ma mum
Take a look now at what your boy has done.
He's walking around like he's number one.
He went downtown and got him a gun.

Don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me.
Don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me.
You know you've got my sympathy, but
don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me.

Don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me.
Don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me.
You know you've got my sympathy. but
don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me.

Looking down kitchen at the top of stairs
can I mix in with your affairs?
Share a smoke, make a joke,
grasp and reach for a leg of hope.

Words to memorize, words hypnotize,
words make my mother exercise.
Words all fail the magic prize,
nothing I can say when I am in your thighs.

Oh mo ma ma ma ma mo ma mother
I would love to love you lover.
The city's restless, its ready to pounce.
When I'm in your bedroom ounce for ounce.

I fear for you decisions to make,
things to lose things to take.
Jessie's about ready to cut it up,
she said wait a minute honey gonna add it up.
