I met her in the museum of palaeontology
And I make no bones about it
I said, "If you wish to study dinosaurs
I know a specimen whose interest is undoubted"
Trapped in a body that is failing me
Well please allow me to be succinct
I wanna love you whilst we both still have flesh upon our bones
Before we both become extinct
Yeah, that's what I told her
"I wanna be your lover"
And then I told her twice
"I wanna be your lover"
Well, he says that he loves you like a sister
Well I guess, I guess that's relative
He says that he wants to make love to you
Well instead of 'to', shouldn't that be 'with'?
Oh, I told you once
"I wanna be your lover"
And now I told you twice, Holmes
"I wanna be your lover"
And so I come to you filled with guilt and self-loathing
And I am praying that you could make me good
And so I fall upon your neck just like a vampire
Yeah, like a vampire who faints at the sight of blood, yeah
And I told you once
"I wanna be your lover"
I'm gonna say it again
And then I told you twice
"I wanna be your lover"
Yeah, well this is my CV and I've got no-one else to blame
So I will state, state my case
Yeah, I will state it again
Go on, help yourself to leftovers
Got a little surplus love and affection
I'm getting cuddly
So won't you cuddle me?
I could be your teddy bear, oh yeah
I know I ain't no eligible bachelor
This is no mouth-watering proposition
Make no mistake, you're in big trouble, little lady
If we start to hugging and a-kissing and a-kissing, are you listening?
'Cause I told you once, oh
And then I told you twice, what?
And now I told you three times, yeah
And at the risk of repeating myself I'm gonna say it again
Yeah, I wanna be your lover
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna be your lover
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna be your lover
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna be your lover
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna be your lover
