10cc — Marriage Bureau Rendezvous

[Verse 1] Well I've been lookin' after number one for too long And it seemed that love was passing me by So I thought I better do something about it And that's why I'm sittin' here lookin' cross the table at you That's why I'm sittin' here lookin' cross the table at you [Verse 2] Well a lonely man needs a marriage bureau Where they sit you right down and you fill in a form Would you like a blonde or a black or a blue rinse? Do you like 'em small, love 'em slim, long and tall? Do you like 'em small, love 'em slim, long and tall? Oh no, too many questions [Bridge] I'm looking for a girl like Momma used to be She's cooking up a dream, she's baking ecstasy Won't it be fine when I find her [Verse 3] Would I like to take her to a movie or the theatre? Would I pick her up at home or would I like to meet her? Somewhere we could take a good look at each other Smile and say hello or walk away Smile and say hello or walk away [Interlude] So I'm squeaky clean in and out of the bath I never shaved so close before I'm gonna put on a tie I'm gonna shine up my shoes I'm gonna slick back my hair I've got nothin' to lose Oh, oh, I'll be stinkin' so good Like I'm drowning in a sea of cologne [Verse 4] Hey, do you know you remind me of someone? But I'm here making eyes at you And I think we're gonna say goodbye to the bureau Close the files, turn the page, start anew Close the files, turn the page, start anew
