"Just You And Me" lyrics

"Just You And Me"

First: I tried to kill it with a hammer
Thought that I could lose the head
Sure! we've eaten off the silver
When even food was against us
And then I tried to kill it in the bed!

Second: I gagged it with a pillow
But awoke the nuns inside my head
They pounded their goddy-goddy fists
From the inside - so from the outside
I got good: I stuck it... dead!

Thirdly: I put my lips upon it
And blew a frost across its flat
I wrote upon it's outside-surface
Tonight we're on the outside-surface
Just you and me girl, you and me and the fat!...
