Something I never would have known
Not knowing knowledge never ennobles
All her ideas were like smoke rings
I had to know things
She was a tangle of questions

How many eggs make up a pound?
How many ears of corn in the niblets?

I was a person who would censor
Pee Wee's Adventure
She was exceedingly liberal

And we fell in love
As the sunshine shone from the sunshine above
Fell in love
Whole-loaf love
Try not to think while you're inside
Just keep your wide eyes wide, wide open
(Keep your eyes open wide)

I made a meal of the lighting
This was exciting
We had a real urban drama
She always said it again
Just when she'd said it, that's when she'd say it
(How's that again?)

She said my pasta was delicious
Bit repetitious
That kind of thing made me crazy
And we fell in love
As the sunshine shone from the sunshine above
Fell in love
Whole-loaf love

Take a look around
The sun has gone down
And I've had a good time
Have you had a good time?
I've loved without loss
I've put down my cross
You know what I know
And I'm going gold

She set my schoolhouse on fire
Down in the fire, the angels are singing
Notice a beautiful fire
Heavenly choir
