You Took Advantage Of Me

Lyrics

In the spring when the feeling was chronic
 And my caution was leaving you flat,
 I should have made use of the tonic
 Before you gave me that!
 A mental deficient you'll grade me.
 I've given you plenty of data.
 You came, you saw and you slayed me,
 And that-a is that-a!
 I'm a sentimental sap, that's all.
 What's the use of trying not to fall?
 I have no will,
 You've made your kill
 Cause you took advantage of me!
 I'm just like an apple on a bough
 And you're gonna shake me down somehow.
 So what's the use,
 You've cooked my goose
 Cause you took advantage of me!
 I'm so hot and bothered that I don't know
 My elbow from my ear.
 I suffer something awful each time you go
 And much worse when you're near.
 Here am I with all my bridges burned,
 Just a babe in arms where you're concerned,
 So lock the doors
 And call me yours
 Cause you took advantage of me.
 When a girl has the heart of a mother
 It must go to someone, of course;
 It can't be a sister or brother
 And so I loved my horse.
 But horses are frequently silly-
 Mine ran from the beach of Kailua
 And left me alone for a filly,
 So I-a picked you-a.
 I'm so hot and bothered that I don't know
 My elbow from my ear.
 I suffer something awful each time you go
 And much worse when you're near.
 Here am I with all my bridges burned,
 Just a babe in arms where you're concerned,
 So lock the doors
 And call me yours
 Cause you took advantage of me.
