Susie has a nice ass and tits like Gibraltar,
but she's just about young enough-

She's an angel and an artist,
but I expect to fuck it up as soon as I have started.

And I
I'm afraid to kiss the girl tonight.
I wonder why
I'm afraid to kiss the girl tonight.

There's something (something something)
in the way you cry.
Something sort of sexy.
You know you like it.
Is there something (something something)
Something on your mind?

God knows we're trying.

She's a nouveau-iconoclast with new-age superstitions.

And I
I'm afraid to kiss the girl tonight.
I wonder why

I don't deserve the love that you've got to give.
Give your heart to another man.
Let another kiss your lips.
I know I'm broken, but
I'm not the only one.
All I need is I don't know.
Fuck! It just ain't fair.

But I
I'm afraid to kiss the girl tonight
I wonder why
I'm afraid to kiss the girl
kiss the girl
kiss the girl
kiss the girl
kiss the girl
kiss the girl
kiss the girl
kiss the girl
kiss the girl
kiss the girl
kiss that girl tonight.
