She's dressed to kill she's my dream lover,
I try to stay cool but she blows my cover.
Shame she won't keep her eyes to herself,
Does my dream lover love somebody else?
I try to stay close but she will insist
When we go out it's like I don't exist.
She flirts with the men, flirts with the girls,
I can't tell you what she does it would make your hair curl!
Cool it, cool it now baby,
Cool it, cool it now baby,
There might be many many fish in the sea,
But you got to be with me when you're with me.
You gotta be with me when you're with me.
I give you lots of space but that don't mean you're free.
I don't ask much but I do expect
That the girl I'm with give me some respect.
Because I could go out I could let my eyes wander,
If it's good for the goose it's good for the gander.
I could look up some of my old flames,
But I wouldn't play them silly games.
