Why can't I get just one kiss? Why can't I get just one kiss? Believe me, there'd be some things that I wouldn't miss But I look at your pants and I need a kiss Why can't I get just one screw? Why can't I get just one screw? Believe me, I'd know what to do But something won't let me make Love to you Why can't I get just one (gasp)? Why can't I get just one (gasp)? I guess it's got something to do with luck But I waited my whole life for just one Day after day I get angry and I will say That the day is in my sight When I take a bow and say goodnight Mo my momma momma mo my mum Have you kept your eye, your eye on your son? I know you've had problems, you're not the only one But when your sugar left, he left you on the run So mo my momma momma mo my mum Take a look now, look what your boy has done He's walking around like he's number one 'Cause he went downtown and he got him a gun So don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me Don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me You know you got my sympathy But don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me Don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me Don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me You know you got my sympathy But don't shoot, shoot, shoot that thing at me Broken-down kitchen at the top of the stairs Can I mix in with your affairs? Share a smoke, make a joke Grasp and reach for a leg of hope Words to memorize, words hypnotize Words make my mouth exercise Words all fail the magic prize Nothing I can say when I'm in your thighs But mo my momma momma mo my mother I would love to love you, lover The city's restless It's ready to pounce In your bedroom, ounce for ounce Sayin' mo my momma momma mo my mother I would love to love you, lover The city's restless It's ready to pounce It go here in your bedroom, ounce for ounce I'm giving you a decision to make Chance to lose, chance to take Just as she was ready to cut it up She said, "Wait a minute, honey, I'm gonna add it up" I'm gonna add it up Add it up Add it up Add it up Add it up Add it up Add it up Day after day I get angry and I will say That the day is in my sight When I take a bow and say goodnight Good-night
