She's My Girl 1959 Tom Lehrer

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 11 Nov 2002

Sharks gotta swim,
and bats gotta fly,
I gotta love one woman till I die.
To Ed or Dick or Bob
she may be just a slob,
but to me, she's my girl.
In winter the bedroom
is one large ice cube,
and she squeezes the toothpaste
from the middle of the tube.
Her hairs in the sink
have driven me to drink,
but she's my girl, she's my girl,
she's my girl,
and I love her.

The girl that I lament for,
the girl my money's spent for,
the girl my back is bent for,
the girl I owe the rent for,
the girl I gave up Lent for
is the girl that heaven meant for me.

So though for breakfast she makes coffee
that tastes like shampoo,
I come home to dinner
and get peanut butter stew,
or if I'm in luck,
it's broiled hockeypuck,
but oh, well, what the hell,
she's my girl, and I love her.
