Huddled up in wicker chair
I wandered up for a closer look
And kissed who ever was sitting there

She was close
And she held me very tightly
Till I asked awfully politely
Please, can I call you her name?

And I elongated my lift home
Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round
I smelt your scent on the seat belt
And kept my shortcuts to myself

I thought I saw you in the parrot's beak
Messing with the smoke alarm
It was too loud for me to hear her speak
And she had a broken arm

It was close
So close that the walls were wet
And she wrote it out as in letraset
No, you can't call me her name

Tell me where's your hiding place?
I'm worried I'll forget your face
And I've asked everyone
I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along

I elongated my lift home
Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round
I smelt your scent on the seat belt
And kept my shortcuts to myself

I saw your sister in the cornerstone
On the phone to the middle man
When I saw that she was on her own
I thought she might understand

She was close
Well, you couldn't get much closer
She said, "I'm really not supposed to but yes
You can call me anything you want"
