I was perched outside in the pouring rain
Trying to make myself a sail
Then I'll float to you, my darlin'
With the evening on my tail

Although not the most honest means of travel
It gets me there nonetheless
I'm a heartless man at worst, babe
And a helpless one at best

Darling, I'll bathe your skin, I'll even wash your clothes
Just give me some candy before I go
Oh, darling, I'll kiss your eyes and lay you down on your rug
Just give me some candy after my hug
