Better in the Dark
Better in the dark
That's what I told her
Better in the dark
Now that we're older
Turn off all the lights
I'll blow the candles out
Better in the dark
Now that we're seniors
Better in the dark
The Lean Cuisine years
Better sight unseen
Inside the shadows of a doubt
I saw her from afar
Over the hill and yet
A few drinks at the bar
Awoke the thrill that led us
Both back to her place
A passionate embrace
But as I tossed my pants away
I thought I saw her glance away
Better in the dark
Now we're relaxing
Better in the dark
My that was taxing
Drifting off to sleep
At last I hear her snore
Better in the dark
I've got to pee now
Better in the dark
Glad she won't see how
Large and pale the moon, butt
I can't find the bathroom door
I blindly search the room
There's going to be a mess
If I don't find it soon
But wait, the wall, a switch
When I turned on the light
She cried out in fright
What she saw there I can't say
Just glad the plants were in the way
Better in the dark
We should have kept it
Better in the dark
Did they suspect it
All the dirty looks
When we showed up holding hands
Better in the dark
Their fortunes shrinking
Better in the dark
That's what they're thinking
What about the will
How this could ruin all their plans
In these our golden years
A shot at love instead of
Loneliness and tears
We've found each other but
The family's so upset
They see this as a threat
The kids would steal this chance away
So we took off for France today and
Paris in the spring
The sun is shining bright
That's what I told her
Better in the dark
Now that we're older
Turn off all the lights
I'll blow the candles out
Better in the dark
Now that we're seniors
Better in the dark
The Lean Cuisine years
Better sight unseen
Inside the shadows of a doubt
I saw her from afar
Over the hill and yet
A few drinks at the bar
Awoke the thrill that led us
Both back to her place
A passionate embrace
But as I tossed my pants away
I thought I saw her glance away
Better in the dark
Now we're relaxing
Better in the dark
My that was taxing
Drifting off to sleep
At last I hear her snore
Better in the dark
I've got to pee now
Better in the dark
Glad she won't see how
Large and pale the moon, butt
I can't find the bathroom door
I blindly search the room
There's going to be a mess
If I don't find it soon
But wait, the wall, a switch
When I turned on the light
She cried out in fright
What she saw there I can't say
Just glad the plants were in the way
Better in the dark
We should have kept it
Better in the dark
Did they suspect it
All the dirty looks
When we showed up holding hands
Better in the dark
Their fortunes shrinking
Better in the dark
That's what they're thinking
What about the will
How this could ruin all their plans
In these our golden years
A shot at love instead of
Loneliness and tears
We've found each other but
The family's so upset
They see this as a threat
The kids would steal this chance away
So we took off for France today and
Paris in the spring
The sun is shining bright
