Mom is talking on the phone talking to her agent
Got a big role in "The Egg & I"
Dad is in the hall checking the replacements
Got the underware in overdrive
Something's going on
I can hear the rumble getting louder on the quiet side
Call it what you want
Some will call it hunger
Some will call it everything in sight
So let the girls wear pants
Let the young boys dance in twos
And the walls? Paint 'em blue!
'Cause I'm in love with you
Summer turns to fall every single summer
It's a wonder that we're still around
Well I could build a wall, I could be a bummer
I could tell you everything's down
Oh something's going on
I can hear the grumble getting quiet on the louder side
Call it what you want
Some will call it thunder
Someone else will call it dynamite
So let the girls romance
Give the young boys dancing shoes
And the walls? Paint 'em blue!
'Cause I'm in love
I'm in love with bees & birds (I'm in love)
I'm in love with the sun (I'm in love)
I'm in love with thought of the day
When the world is one (I'm in love)
I'm in love with the boys and girls (I'm in love)
I'm in love with the rain
I'm in love with the sound you make
When you call my name
Sounds like peace again
Something's awful wrong falling down is easy
It's the getting up that's getting hard
Call it what you want it can be misleading
But it can also take you where you are
Well I can hear them all talking to their faces
This is not the way you want to be
Take it to the wall or any other place
And you will see what I've been trying to mean
So let the young girls dance
With the young boys dancing too
And the walls? Paint 'em blue!
'Cause I'm in love
I'm in love with the boys and girls (I'm in love)
I'm in love with the sun (I'm in love)
I'm in love with thought of the day
When the world is one (I'm in love)
I'm in love with bees & birds (I'm in love)
I'm in love with the rain
I'm in love with the sound you make
When you call my name
Sounds like peace again
