SHELLFISH (Walsh) Girlfriend over here Girlfriend over there Girlfriend in the middle Girlfriend in my hair CHORUS I'm in love with you And I'll do anything except give up who I am I know I'll be true True to myself because I am a shellfish Girlfriend is a mystery Girlfriend is a gas Girlfriend is a symphony I feel so much I feel like CHORUS BRIDGE We go for a bike ride We go to the sea take a walk in the sand Girlfriend in my phone book Girlfriend in my house Girlfriend on my arm Girlfriend on my Christmas list CHORUS CHORUS

POP ME LIKE A BUBBLE (Rothenberg/Walsh) These days I've got love on my mind Sweet darling love's so easy to find Then you cry turn your face and you pop me like a bubble All I want is me next to you My friends are so cynical They think love is so uncool Then you laugh in my face and you pop me like a bubble All I want is me next to you These days love's been flying around Sweet darling don't bring me down Then you wink walk away and you pop me like a bubble All I want is me next to you Then you stop and you stay and you pop me like a bubble All I want is me next to you

ROMEO AND JULIET (Walsh) I love you and you love me That’s the way we’ll always be I don’t care what people say I will love you anyway Romeo and Juliet Had a chance the night we met I’m so happy I could cry Miss you when we say goodbye Chasing you from year to year Breaking hearts ‘till you appear Lovers come and lovers go You’re the one I want to know Romeo and Juliet Had to take what they could get I’m so happy I could cry Miss you when we say goodbye I’m a big romantic heart Cut in half when we’re apart I love you and that is all Strong enough to take the fall Romeo and Juliet Had a life of no regrets I’m so happy I could cry Miss you when we say goodbye

SHE LIKED LITTLE BOYS (Rothenberg/Walsh) Pick me up Put me down Rocking horse Circus clown When I closed my eyes She would run and hide All her men were toys She liked little boys On the shelf In the dark Holding hands In the park When I closed my eyes She would run and hide All her men were toys She liked little boys I tried my best to make her love me But all she did was make me cry When I closed my eyes She would run and hide All her men were toys She liked little boys Waiting for Another day And the games She would play When I closed my eyes She would run and hide All her men were toys She liked little boys All her men were toys She liked little boys

SUZANNE GOT A HOOLAHOOP (Rothenberg/Walsh) CHORUS Suzanne got a hoolahoop Suzanne got a hoolahoop Suzanne got a hoolahoop Don't you want to try? Suzanne has a yellow ball Likes to throw it down the hall Watch it hit the purple wall Just to see the colors fall CHORUS Suzanne has an aeroplane Crashes through the window pane Lands it in a cloud of rain Just to drive her mom insane CHORUS Suzanne has little home home Likes to stay there al alone With her cat and dog and bone And reruns of the Twilight Zone

Do you really love me? Yes I really love you Are you gonna miss me when I die Don’t make me cry Yeah, oh yeah, I'm gonna love you gonna love you CHORUS Birds and birds and bees and bees Birds and bees and you and me Getting down in the trees Any old way we please CHORUS

JOANNE’S EYES (Walsh) Joanne’s Eyes got sparks in the middle Tell you what they’re for When I’m walking she sees me coming She’s got an open door Down the hall and into the kitchen She’s got me hypnotized Joanne loves me more than a little With her pretty eyes Joanne’s Eyes got signs in the window Tell you what they’re for When she’s laughing smiling and singing She’s like a candy store Super sweet and brown as chocolate All the babies get a big surprise When I’m hungry she feeds me candy From her pretty eyes INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE Joanne’s Eyes got lines in the corners She’s got a line that goes straight to her heart That’s where she takes me when I’m looking Into her pretty eyes That’s where she takes me when I’m looking Into her pretty eyes

SERPENTS (Walsh) I can tell when it's a lie I see Serpents in your eyes And I won't pretend anymore Save your lullaby I Can tell when it's a lie Parachutes I don't have In my memory You say things that make me cry I see Serpents in your eyes And I won't forget what you said Falling from the sky I Catch you in a lie Is it love or is it lust These are things that I don't trust Evidence I can't deny I see Serpents in your eyes I can tell when it's a lie I see Serpents in your eyes

LIQUID FEELING (Rothenberg/Walsh) We were traveling beneath an eastern moon Spent the night together in a paper room Woke up in the morning the host was at the door With honeysuckle tea he place upon the floor CHORUS Tell me what you see What's behind the glow Is it you or me or something I should know I would like to tell her exactly how I feel When she looks at me I get this Liquid Feeling We were traveling on an eastern shore Spent the night together woke up on the floor She was there beside me smiling tenderly Making me an offer of honeysuckle tea CHORUS CHORUS

SHE'S MAKING WAVES (Walsh) My love is shining with fire tonight Weaving a story she plays with the light She's making waves all over me She's making waves all over me My love is hungry for conversation Out of her mouth falls a babbling brook She's making waves all over me She's making waves all over me Sometimes she makes me laugh Sometimes she laughs at me Sometimes I feel like I ain't going nowhere Sometimes I feel set free My love is swaying in the breeze As lazy as summer as long as I please She's making waves all over me She's making waves all over me She's making waves all over me She's making waves all over me
