(spoken intro)
I get this message on the message machine that shes cooking dinner
Tonight so I go out and pick up a bottle of wine and when I get there Im a little nervous
And I run out of things to say
So I say, "i, uh, like your wooden floor boards"
She is laying in flannel sheets
The brass bed speaks
Come on lie in me
And there Im standing naked and meek, stalling she says lovingly...
(chorus)
If I were the queen, and you were just the jester fool I would love you as my king
Just because I do, I do, I do love you
(spoken bridge)
At six am the alarm clock goes off and I realize Im not used to looking at this particular ceiling she taps me on the shoulder with an empty shoe and says, "hey, cinderella, does this belo
You? "
Morning out on a naked street
Old lady on the corner is staring at me
I guess she aint ever seen barefoot feet or heard the words that she sung to me
