Delicatessen - How Long Has This Been Going On ? Songtexte

As a tot, when i trotted in little velvet panties,
I was kissed by my sisters, my cousins, and my anties.
Sad to tell, it was hell, an inferno worse than dante's.
So my dear i swore,
"never, never more !"
On my list, i insisted that kissing must be crossed out.
Now, i find i was blind, and oh my ! , how i lost out !

I could cry salty tears ;
Where have i been all these years ?
Little wow, tell me now :
How long has this been going on ?

There were chills up my spine,
And some thrills i can't define.
Listen, sweet, i repeat :
How long has this been going on ?

Oh, i feel that i could melt ;
Into heaven i'm hurled !
I know how clombus felt,
Finding another world.

Kiss me once, then once more.
What a dunce i was before.
What a break ! for heaven's sake !
How long has this been going on ?

Dear, when in your arms i creep,
That divine rendez-vous,
Don't wake me, if i'm asleep,
Let me dream that it's true !

Kiss me twice, then once more.
That makes thrice, let's make it four !
What a break ! for heaven's sake !
How long has this been going on ?
--how long has this... been going ... on ?... .
