Hold That Thought Songtext / Lyric

She broke down and cried

At the strip mall acupuncturist

While the world went on outside



The Chinese doctor took her arm,

Gazed at the floor and read her wrist

For the secrets in her life



"Here's your medicine," she said

"If you do not smile at him, then someone else will."

You hold that thought

And I'll hold that thought too



Ah ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh



I was shown the thirty-six

Ways I'm not available

On a simple, easy chart



Later on that evening

On the beach in Santa Monica

It was a very risky start






Suppose the stupid chart is right

In a year will you still feel the same way?

Ah, well, you hold that thought

And I'll hold that thought too



Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ah, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ahh, ahh



Did you ever see the film

Where a man is givin' spectacles

To make the world look upside-down?



He falls about the place

But in time he somehow readjusts

And when they take the glasses off

The eyes he's always had see sky below him

And he falls again



Ah, but you hold that thought

And I'll hold that thought

You hold that thought

And I'll hold that thought

You hold that thought

And I'll hold that thought



Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooooh
