World’s greatest mystery: love between a woman and a man
Some guys are Romeos, others simply do the best they can
I’m just your average, ordinary Joe
Trying to learn the things I never knew I had to know
What’s a man supposed to do?
I can’t get no kick from 9 to 5—no, no
And I’m not a man who thinks it’s true:
it’s a woman’s place to keep our love alive
I watched enough daytime TV to know my baby’s needs
Sometimes I swear she’s impossible to please
Chorus
She says, you give me all that I want of your money, babe,
But you never take me dancing (never take me dancing)
You give me sweet little talk, call me honey, baby
But you never take me dancing (never take me dancing)
Think I do a lot to show how I feel about her in my way
Roses on our anniversary, candle light and me on her birthday
Just when I thought that I had it all worked out
She says I still don’t know just what it’s all about
Chorus
Interlude
I’m just your average, ordinary Joe
Trying to learn the things I never knew I had to know
Yeee, yeee, yeee, yeee, yeee, yeee
Chorus (Repeat and fade)
