Cooties

If only, if only I could catch the cooties from you, please, give me the cooties, I heard, they can cure the blues, sometimes Give them to me, so they'll be mines The cooties aren't so scary, when they're coming from you The cooties are the only thing that can stop me from feeling blue?? I don't get to see you, anymore This is hard for me You impressed me to my very core If you used a breathalyzer wand, to see If I were drunk, it wouldn't be from wine But from the way I feel, thinking of you Wishing that you were mine Or that I could simply lock lips with yours Then, maybe I would no longer feel so blue For now, though, in my imagination- we're walking hand in hand, on many shores Through flowers, past ponds and valleys, too Past the limits of infatuation If only, if only I could catch the cooties from you, please, give me the cooties, I heard, they can cure the blues, sometimes Give them to me, so they'll be mines The cooties aren't so scary, when they're coming from you The cooties are the only thing that can stop me from feeling blue??
