Paddling Like a Duck Underneath
Cool as a cucumber, he plopped down
She looked and wondered why, but said, "Hi."
Wishing she had turned her head with a sour frown
The whole time thinking she wished she said bye
She looked and wondered why, but said, "Hi."
He was cool as a cucumber, so it seemed
The whole time thinking she wished she said bye
Deep down in a rut, her thoughts said get up in a scream
He was cool as a cucumber, so it seemed
But he was really paddling like a duck underneath
Deep down in a rut, her thoughts said get up in a scream
If only had she known, it would lead to a bridal wreath
But he was really paddling like a duck underneath
Wishing she had turned her head with a sour frown
If only she had known, this would lead to a bridal wreath
Cool as a cucumber he plopped down
