"I'm Leaving" lyrics

Todd Rundgren & The Lemon Twigs Lyrics

"I'm Leaving"

I still recall just what my mama said
You need an old fashioned girl who makes breakfast in bed
And you are man and everything
But then I must confess
The bacon is burnt and the eggs are a mess

That's why I'm leaving, darling
I'm sorry but I have to go
Oh darling
I'm sorry but I have to

Everything about you is as good as it gets
You know just how I like it, especially the sex
I should be happy as a king
I would make you my wife
But you can't even boil water to save your own life
Or you could maybe learn to fry up some spam
Don't know a pot from a pan

That's why I'm leaving, darling
I'm sorry but I have to go
Oh darling
I'm sorry but I have to

Now that my lovin' isn't on the table
We've got to make it up as we go along
Now that my lovin' isn't on the table
We've got to make it on up, make it on up
Oh oh oh oh oh

Wonder Woman has got to learn to work in the kitchen
But this way, we'll starve to death and that's why I'm bitchin'
That's why I'm bitchin' baby, that's why I'm bitchin' yeah
That's why I'm bitchin' baby, that's why I'm bitchin' yeah

I'm leaving, darling
I'm sorry but I have to go
Oh darling
I'm sorry but I have to
