Remember that energy crisis that California had? Yeah? You know Jill Sobule? Anyway, she had a lyric writing contest,
and here is my submission. Nah, I didn't win, but if anyone wants to write music to this
song, let me know...
Oh yeah... this song is called "Kissing You In the Dark"
I got a postcard the other day
of palm trees and sunny beaches
and it said, "wish you were here
in sunny C-A"
Oh, sunny California
la la la de dah la la dah dah
So I got a ticket, got on a plane
Oh, here I come, sunny C-A...
(Chorus) Here in California with you
and was that the light?
Kissing you in the dark
Oh, what a delight...
Mmmmmmmm......
Don’t worry, the neighbors won’t see
through those windows at night
They won’t see you and me
‘cause there’s no electricity
Except for you and me...
I wonder if those people in Anaheim
got the rides of their lives
if they were on the roller coasters at the wrong time?
La la la la de dah...
Ob la di do dah
babababababdada
I was getting my hair cut yesterday
and oops, they went out again
The girl doing my hair kept on cutting
so down on Rodeo, I couldn’t start a new trend
But I guess it doesn’t matter
In the dark with you
Just as long as i’m here
even if I have a bad hair day or two
(Chorus) Here in California with you
and was that the light?
Kissing you in the dark
Oh, what a delight
mmmmmmm...
Oh, kissing you in the dark
mmmmmm mmmmmm
getting cozy with you
la la la de dah, la de dah dah...
What a delight....
Mmmmmmmmm...
In this endless night....
Mmmmmmmmmm....
