Gilbert O'Sullivan - Medley 1973
1. Matrimony (1971)
I've no wish to hurry you luv
But have you seen the time?
It's quarter to ten and we're supposed to be there
at nine
I don't think the registrar
Will be very pleased
When we show up an hour late
Like two frozen peas
Both now facing for the first time
Presently and past
Something that begins with M
And ends in alas
More than not complete disaster
Even from the start
What could it be...?
It's Matrimony
2. Clair (1972)
Clair, the moment I met you I swear
I felt as if something somewhere
Had happened to me
Which I couldn't see
And then
The moment I met you again
I knew in my heart That we were friends
It had to be so
It couldn't be no
But try as hard as I might do I don't know why
You get to me in a way I can't describe
Words mean so little when you look up and smile
I don't care what people say,
To me you're more than a child
Oh! Clair, Clair.
3. Get down (1973)
Told you once before
And I won't tell you no more
Get down, get down, get down
You're a bad dog baby
But I still want you 'round
You give me the creeps
When you jump on your feet
So get down, get down, get down
Keep your hands to yourself
I'm strictly out of bounds
Once upon a time I drank a little wine
Was as happy as could be, happy as could be
Now I'm just like a cat on a hot tin roof
Baby what do you think you're doin' to me
Told you once before
And I won't tell you no more
So get down, get down, get down
You're a bad dog baby
But I still want you 'round around
I still want you around
aye aye aye
I don't give a damn
And I'd like you if you can to
Get down, get down, get down
You're bad dog baby
But I still want you 'round
Once upon a time I drank a little wine
Was as happy as could be, happy as could be
Now I'm just like a cat on a hot tin roof
Baby what do you think you're doin' to me
Told you once before
And I won't tell you no more
So get down, get down, get down
You're a bad dog baby
But I still want you 'round around
I still want you 'round around
Bad baby, bad dog baby
Bad baby, bad dog baby
