Free love and threeways
Deep hips and wide lips
Cheap chicks and one night stand
Girls who wear glasses
And girls with big asses
Who do things I don't undertand
I admit I'm a pervert
With my fair share of issues
And a list of things I adore
But as time slips away
All I can say
Is there's something I love even more
So I'll give up the weird shit for you
I'll be tender and gentle and true
I'll come home every night
There's no need to fight
'Cuz your love is all I'll pursue
There's a mountain of women
Each night in my slumber
Who wait for me in my dreams
But when I awake
Here in your arms
It's your love that's all that I need
Yes I gave up the nightlife
In search of the right life
To learn things I already knew
That the flirting and laughter
And emptiness after
Will never be sweeter than you
So I'll give up the weird shit for you
I'll be tender and gentle and true
I'll come home every night
There's no need to fight
'Cuz your love is all I'll pursue
Inverting crosses
Affairs with my bosses
Mushrooms and blunts and cocaine
Whiskey for breakfast
Hookups on Craigslist
Lovers without a last name
Chakras and Polarity
Reichian Therapy
A Landmark˝ seminar or two
There was something I needed
But now I'm completed
I'll give up that weird shit for you
So I'll give up the weird shit for you
I'll be tender and gentle and true
I'll come home every night
There's no need to fight
'Cuz your love is all I'll pursue
