Funny Little Frog

Honey, lovin' you is the greatest thing

I get to be myself and I get to sing

I get to play at being irresponsible

I come home late and I love your soul

I never forget you in my prayers

I never have a bad thing to report

You're my picture on the wall

You're my vision in the hall

You're the one I'm talkin' to

When I get in from my work

You are my girl and you don't even know it

I am livin' out the life of a poet

I am the jester in the ancient court

And you're the funny little frog in my throat

My eyesight's fadin', my hearin's dim

I can't get insured for the state I'm in

I'm a danger to myself, I've been starting fights

At the party at the club on a Saturday night

But I don't get disapproving from my girl

She gets all the highlights wrapped in pearls

You're my picture on the wall

You're my vision in the hall

You're the one I'm talkin' to

When I get in from my work

You are my girl and you don't even know it

I am livin' out the life of a poet

I am the jester in the ancient court

And you're the funny little frog in my throat

I had a conversation with you at night

It's a little one-sided, but that's alright

I tell you in the kitchen about my day

You sit on the bed in the dark, changin' places

With the ghost that was there before you came

You've come to save my life again

I don't dare to touch your hand

I don't dare to think of you

In a physical way

And I don't know how you smell

You are the cover of my magazine

You're my fashion tip, a livin' museum

I'd pay to visit you on rainy Sundays

I'll maybe tell you all about it, someday
