When you say "No" She says "Why not?" I want a girl to turn my screw To wind my watch, to buckle my shoe And if she won't her mother will do Cause when she does as she's told We'll all turn platinum and gold But when she sits on my knee I hear her whispers to me "Can't you see? "I could be your spooky girlfriend" (repeat with F#m C#7 and vocal harmonies)
