Washing clothes—that’s how it goes In the middle of a Sunday afternoon You walk in at two o’clock again I guess it’s time for me to make my move Laundromat Girl I wanna share my load with you Don’t worry. I’m in a hurry I’ll be gone right after we’re through Laundromat Girl I won’t ask you to fold my clothes Just give me a hand with yours And we’ll see wherever that goes… Spin with me and you’ll see It’ll be like a trip around the world Hold on tight. We’ll get it right And maybe you can be my Laundromat Girl I wanna share my load with you Don’t worry. I’m in a hurry I’ll be gone right after we’re through Laundromat Girl I won’t ask you to fold my clothes Just give me a hand with yours And we’ll see wherever that goes… So dry your eyes. Don’t you cry Cuz those other guys have left you all alone I’m your man. I understand And I hope that I can take you home Laundromat Girl I wanna share my load with you Don’t worry. I’m in no hurry I can stay long after we’re through Laundromat Girl So soft and cuddly I think it’s time for you to come on home with me.

My engine is revving My number lucky seven You’re in the pole position But I’m closing in I know I’m on your mind I can see I’m making you sweat I’m coming from behind For a finish you won’t forget First place is on your face The checkered flag is in the bag I pass with a final tap Then I do a victory lap Last turn, tires burn Photo finish that I’ll earn Nothing can make my motor stop Watch your jaw drop I know I’m on your mind I can see I’m making you sweat I’m coming from behind For a finish you won’t forget First place is on your face The checkered flag is in the bag I pass with a final tap Then I do a victory lap We can go slow When the pace car is pacing Just know I’m good to go When it’s time to start racing Let’s get that heartbeat racing First place is on your face The checkered flag is in the bag I pass with a final tap Then I do a victory lap

You turn me on the you turn me down But I know in time that you’ll come around In all your life you have never found Someone like me cuz I am wonderful (Yes, I am) Eventually you’ll realize (You’ll figure it out) Just how damn good I am And you’ll come crawling back With those tears in your eyes (Cry for me, baby) I’m getting tired of waiting on you To realize those other guys are fools It’s for you to go back to school And learn about me, cuz I am wonderful (Just ask around) Eventually you’ll realize (Everyone else knows) Just how damn good I am And you’ll come crawling back With those tears in your eyes (No need to apologize, yet) I’m the solution, Baby. Do the math. The destination down every path Why would you ever wanna feel the wrath Of life without me? Cuz… I am wonderful (In fact, I’m perfect) Eventually you’ll realize (You can’t deny) Just how damn good I am And you’ll come crawling back With those tears in your eyes (Shed those tears) I am wonderful (C’mon, Girl) Eventually you’ll realize (I’m fantastic!) Just how damn good I am And you’ll come crawling back With those tears in your eyes (You’ll be ok, cuz you’ve got me)

Is it the Doc Martin boots The dirty blonde roots Or could it be the attitude you’re layin’ on thick? The leather and lace Heavy makeup on your face Or fishnet stockings that’s doing the trick? I’m not sure, but I’m beginning to feel Depeche Mode And it looks like you’re The Cure The more I look, the Morrisey That you’re the one for me If I were dressed in black Would you look back And show me the way in? I think we just might fit I’ve got to learn your secret Because you’re making my head spin I’m not sure, but I’m beginning to feel Depeche Mode And it looks like you’re The Cure The more I look, the Morrisey That you’re the one for me

Pardon me if I offend It’s not the outcome I intend I’d really rather See you smile Your blushing cheeks are cherry red Did they turn that way from what I said? Or is it something they just do Every once in a while I only want to satisfy The curiosity in my mind Look in my eyes and you will find I never meant to harm you I guess I’ve got a lot to learn About just what it takes to earn Your trust And your interest My heart is saying it’s worth the time I’m counting on yours agreeing with my If not, that’s a shame Cuz we just wasted our time I only want to satisfy The curiosity in my mind Look in my mind and you will find I never meant to harm you

Whipped cream and chocolate covered dreams Have got me thinking I’d love to make a mess of you Would it be drastic to cover the room in plastic? Invite you to make a mess of me too… Brainwash me to clean all of these dirty thoughts of you Caramel and cinnamon as well Sugarcoated secrets you know I’ll never tell It’d be fantastic if your shyness can get past it Let yourself go. Baby, you know Brainwash me to clean all of these dirty thoughts of you. I need to be brainwashed To clean all of these dirty thoughts of you I ought to be locked away For all the things I’d love to do Brainwash me to clean all of these dirty thoughts of you, Baby.

Hey there, Cutie What’s the problem if I stare? It’s really your fault After all, you put them out there What’s the difference If it’s my eyes or his? Could it be you want to kiss him? Ah, that’s what it is! I’m not a stalker I’ve just got a wandering eye and it’s following you I’m not a stalker I’m just enjoying the view Hey there, Gorgeous What’s it like being so hot? Is it a burden Or are you cashing in on what you’ve got? I’d like to know you If you know what I mean But every time I get a little close You look like you’re about to scream Please, Baby don’t scream I’m not a stalker I’ve just got a wandering eye and it’s following you I’m not a stalker I’m just enjoying the view
