Sesame Street Is No Place For Romance Songtext / Lyric

"You must know deep in your heart of hearts that people are supposed to make love. It is our main purpose in life! All those other activities... Playing the violin, washing dishes, reading novels, drinking wine, are just ways of passing time... Until you can make love again."



I know something you don't

You'll never know

I know something you don't



It's mine, It's my,

She's mine, it's my,

Space, space!



You think I've gone far with

All of these damsels

You think I've gone far with

All of these damsels



You're busy stealing glances

And I know

That nothing in this world's for free



It's mine, It's my,

She's mine, it's my,

Space, space!






Don't you think that we haven't noticed your uncanny silence

(Uncanny, uncanny silence)

We've made note of those circles

That are deepening underneath your eyes

(Under your eyes, under your eyes)

Going "Where have you been?"

(Where have you been, where have you been?)



Pretending like an elephant

Doesn't make you wise

And I think it's time

(Yeah, I think it's time)

That you see it for yourself



Pretending like an elephant

It doesn't make me wise

No matter how loud I claim it

It won't scour away the grime

And I know how you listen

You won't ever hear a thing

You'll just sit there and you'll blame me

While the mockingbird sings



Get ready to catch a hundred more

Get ready to catch the door



We'll see
