Lyrics:
Your brain is sharp
You play the harp
That’s easy for me to dismiss
For if you wanna be mine
You gotta shine
On the other end of a kiss
The latest style
A toothpaste smile
Is good for a “boo” or a hiss
The thing that matters to me
Is how you be
On the other end of a kiss
Make money, you lose it
Why dress up, you’ll mess up your clothes
But look at what goes on and on and on
About an inch beneath your nose
You got degrees
You talk Chinese
You know what to do with all this
The only pertinent fact
Is how you act
On the other end of a kiss
To heed to calls, Niagara Falls
You chartered the Alps for the Swiss Dogs
But what’s important to wit
Is how you fit
On the other end of a kiss
You dined with queens
On pork and beans
You called every Princess
Dear Miss Dog
But if you wanna be wed
You’ll use your head
On the other end of a kiss
Your painting, go hang it
So what if you yacht is a pip?
Consider the space you call your face
Learn to love me lip to lip
You made my folks
Applaud your jokes
In Kansas they love you for this
But if you wanna be smart
You’ll hang your heart
On the other end of a kiss
If you wanna be smart
You’ll hang your heart
On the other end of a kiss
