What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
In the spring when the feeling was chronic
2
And my caution was leaving you flat,
3
I should have made use of the tonic
4
Before you gave me that!
5
A mental deficient you'll grade me.
6
I've given you plenty of data.
7
You came, you saw and you slayed me,
8
And that-a is that-a!
9
I'm a sentimental sap, that's all.
10
What's the use of trying not to fall?
11
I have no will,
12
You've made your kill
13
'Cause you took advantage of me!
14
I'm just like an apple on a bough
15
And you're gonna shake me down somehow.
16
So what's the use,
17
You've cooked my goose
18
'Cause you took advantage of me!
19
I'm so hot and bothered that I don't know
20
My elbow from my ear.
21
I suffer something awful each time you go
22
And much worse when you're near.
23
Here am I with all my bridges burned,
24
Just a babe in arms where you're concerned,
25
So lock the doors
26
And call me yours
27
'Cause you took advantage of me.
28
When a girl has the heart of a mother
29
It must go to someone, of course;
30
It can't be a sister or brother
31
And so I loved my horse.
32
But horses are frequently silly-
33
Mine ran from the beach of Kailua
34
And left me alone for a filly,
35
So I-a picked you-a.
36
I'm a sentimental sap, that's all.
37
What's the use of trying not to fall?
38
I have no will,
39
You've made your kill
40
'Cause you took advantage of me!
41
I'm just like an apple on a bough
42
And you're gonna shake me down somehow.
43
So what's the use,
44
You've cooked my goose
45
'Cause you took advantage of me!
46
I'm so hot and bothered that I don't know
47
My elbow from my ear.
48
I suffer something awful each time you go
49
And much worse when you're near.
50
Here am I with all my bridges burned,
51
Just a babe in arms where you're concerned,
52
So lock the doors
53
And call me yours
54
'Cause you took advantage of me.
