"Josephine" lyrics

"Josephine"

If I were Napoleon
You could be my Josephine
We could go to drive-in films
In my red convertible

If I were Napoleon
I might be in magazines
I'd write some science fiction
Science fiction about you

You could be my Josephine
Just you and your chaperone
Let you be my Josephine, Josephine

If I were Napoleon
You could be my lady love
Look into my soft blue eyes
Run your fingers through my hair

If I were Napoleon
You could be my turtle-dove
Living out in Corsica
In our summer cottages

And you could be my Josephine
And we could be Siamese twins
Let you be my Josephine, Josephine
