Magical Mystical Thing Lyrics

love is a magical mystical thing

it puts a smile on your face

and makes your whole body sing

and love is a many-splendorous splendor

love makes your heart, makes your head

extra tender

so i don't want you to know me

i don't want you to show me

all that's magical mystical and what love is

if you're funny and you're smart

maybe you can get a kiss

but kissing better be all you're thinking of

cause i don't want to fall in love

I can see you watching me from far across the bar

and i'd advise you honey,

stay right where you are

unless you're only thinking of just one night

well okay then maybe that'd be alright

i know that love makes you grow

puts your mind to the test

with experience and knowledge

you'll be twice blessed

but i guess i'll leave that stuff for all the rest

because a good screw's a close second best

as long as i don't let you get to know me

i'm not gonna let you get to own me

i'm not gonna waste my precious time

thinking 'does he really love me?',

'does he wanna be mine?'

i'm never ever gonna be your valentine

no, you don't get to take me in my prime

no, no, no, no, no

i don't want you to know me

i don't want you to show me

all that's magical and mystical and what love is

if you're funny and you're smart, maybe you could score a kiss

but kissing better be all you're thinking of

cause i don't want to fall in love

love is a flame, and flames burn out

love rarely ever has a good turnout

maybe i'll feel differently someday

but meanwhile daddy i'm just gonna play

love is a magical mystical thing

it makes your mom and dad proud you can do anything

but love has a way of spending all your bread

love is gonna kick you till you're dead

no i don't want you to know me

i don't want you to show me

all that's magical and mystical and what love is

if you're funny and you're smart

maybe baby gets a kiss

kissing better be all baby's thinking of

cause this pretty baby

this pretty baby

this babe doesn't want to fall in love
