The Only One
Some girls have hopes for the man they will meet
That he will have digs on a priv'leged street
And gainfully employed
And careful to avoid
Infractions of the law
Handsome and upbeat
And on the other hand you have a man like me
I'd like to take this time to offer my apology
'Cuz if that other man
Had tried to win your hand
I'd probably have him shot
With an egg to the knee cap
All I'm really saying
Is stick with me
Say yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh
You deserve a king or a captain
(But) neither one of them's around
Fiends close in, you need a superhero
(But) I'm the only one around
I wonder which Roman god did you offend
To end up with me as your lifelong friend?
At least I'll never leave
When you age or when you grieve
Or when you need some food
On me you can depend
I'm your knight in armor
Just like
Don Quixote yeh yeh yeh yeh
A man like me begins the race by falling on his face
Video shows he never tied his shoes
I know, I know when I get there (no one
sticks around to see the last contender)
If you will tie the ribbon back across the finish line I'll break
right through it like I was the only one
who ever did and I'll say yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
That he will have digs on a priv'leged street
And gainfully employed
And careful to avoid
Infractions of the law
Handsome and upbeat
And on the other hand you have a man like me
I'd like to take this time to offer my apology
'Cuz if that other man
Had tried to win your hand
I'd probably have him shot
With an egg to the knee cap
All I'm really saying
Is stick with me
Say yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh
You deserve a king or a captain
(But) neither one of them's around
Fiends close in, you need a superhero
(But) I'm the only one around
I wonder which Roman god did you offend
To end up with me as your lifelong friend?
At least I'll never leave
When you age or when you grieve
Or when you need some food
On me you can depend
I'm your knight in armor
Just like
Don Quixote yeh yeh yeh yeh
A man like me begins the race by falling on his face
Video shows he never tied his shoes
I know, I know when I get there (no one
sticks around to see the last contender)
If you will tie the ribbon back across the finish line I'll break
right through it like I was the only one
who ever did and I'll say yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
