Cupcake — Nellie McKay

C'mon, now you've got some time I wanna hear it cuz I need an answer I know youth dies young But our youth's just begun And ain't it a beautiful day

'Cause it's true, baby I need you I'm damned if I say I do Gertrude would approve

I need you in the mornin I need you in the silent afterglow Won't you let my lovin' show, baby

Oh anyone can toe the line Except for me cuz I'm a disco dancer All my life I've been A gopher with a grin My smile is fadin' away

Cuz it's true, baby I need you To shatter the status q Truman would approve

I need you in the mornin' I need you in the sunshine, rain or snow Won't you let my lovin' show, baby

Otherwise I don't want to hear it You've got me talkin talkin talkin Well it's better than you 'Cause I say I don't wanna fear it That look that says exactly what you think of me Cuz that's when you would be free oh From my love My love Baby baay-bee

C'mon now honey stop denyin' Or I'm forever gonna be a bachelor Leave the steps of your house Get down to the courthouse Give me a G and an A, Y?!

'Cause it's true, Baby I need you I'm damned if I say, "I do" Jesus would approve I need you in the morning I need you In the scarlet afterglow oh won't you let my lovin' show Baby I need you-oo-ooo I need you to sustain my sorry soul Won't you let my lovin' show Baby I need you I need you I said I don't wanna hear it you got me talkin talkin talkin Well it's better than you I need you-oo-ooo I need yoooou I need you to get over my rainbow I don't wanna hear it I don't wanna hear it I don't wanna hear it I don't wanna hear it
