There's somethin' irresistable-ish about 'em.

We grin and bear it 'cause the nights are long.

I hope that somethin' better comes along.

Ah, but what could be better than a saucy Irish setter

When puppy love comes on strong?

A lover and wife gives you a new leash on life.

There is no solution, it's part of evolution,
           F#
The pitter patter of soles,
