Murder He Says (from "Crimes And Misdemeanors")

Finally found a fella almost completely divine
But his vocabulary is killin' this romance of mine
We get into an intimate... situation
And then begins this Romeo's conversation

He says murder, he says, every time we kiss
He says murder, he says, at a time like this
He says murder, he says, is that the language of love

He says, solid, he says, takes me in his arms
And says, solid, he says, meaning all my charms
He says, solid, he says, is that the language of love?

He says, chick chick, you torture me
Zoom, are we livin?
I'm thinkin' of leaving him flat

He says, dig dig the jumps
The old ticker is giving
He can talk plainer than that

He says, murder, he says, every time we kiss
He says, murder, he says, keep it up like this
He says, murder, he says, in that impossible tone

We'll bring on nobody's murder
But his own

He says, Jackson, he says, and my name's Marie
He says, Jackson, he says, shoot the snoot for me
He says, Jackson, he says, is that the language of love?

He says, mmmhmm, when he likes my hat
He says, tsk tsk, what the heck is that?
He says, woo hoo! he says, is that the language of love?

He says hep hep with helium
Now babe, we're cookin
Another expression's to wit
He says, we're in the groove
And the groove is good lookin
Sounds like his uppers don't fit!

He says, murder, he says
Every time we kiss
He says, murder, he says
Keep it up like this
In that, murder, he says
In that impossible tone

We'll bring on nobody's murder
But his own!
