Two Pt. Contention-Dave Brubeck

When a girl has the heart of a mother
It must go to someone of course
It can't be sister or brother
And so I love my horse
But horses are frequently silly
Mine ran from the beach of okhala
And left me alone for a filly
So I have picked you up
I'm a sentimental sap
That's all
What's the use of trying not to fall
I have no will
You've made your kill
Cause you took advantage of me
I'm just like an apple on a bough
And you're gonna shake me down somehow
So
What's the use
You've cooked my goose
Cause you took advantage of me
I'm so hot and bothered that
I don't know my elbow from my ear
I suffer something awful each time
You go and much worse when you're near
Here I am with all my bridges burned
Just a babe in arms where you're concerned
So lock the doors and call me yours
Cause you took advantage of me
I'm a sentimental sap
That's all
What's the use of trying not to fall
I have no will
You've made your kill
Cause you took advantage of me
I'm just like an apple on a bough
And you're gonna shake me down somehow
So
What's the use
You've cooked my goose
Cause you took advantage of me
