lyrics

4th of July in '68 I was 13
You seemed much older for your size
I took my chance I tried to kiss you on the mouth
You screamed now look what you have done
You'll break my heart she broke my nose
The taste of blood was on my tongue
My initiation into love

Then in "76 I boogied down
Yeh I like the strobe lights in the floor
I thought you hustled rather well above the noise I tried to say
You're such a fox that's when she said
I'll be right back how longs right back?
I think that she was not sincere
But polyesters here to stay

I think that love is a mysterious thing
Like watching water freeze
My heart is a big red liquid pump
That breaks down all the time


I read this book the other day
That claimed to know just how you think
It was kind of hard to understand there were no pictures
No none at all!
You said I haven't got a clue
Well I'm from Mars what's your excuse
Next thing I know I'm seeing stars yeh I know that feeling
I am in love I am in love

Chorus
