    when the weather's fine, when it's sunny outside
    think about the time I kicked a boy 'til he cried
  • oh, I could've been wrong, but I don't think I was
    he was such a child
     
  • when I am alone, I remember so well
    how merrily I tripped a boy so he fell
    and I could've been wrong, but I don't think I was
  • he was totally wild
     
    and I've been wondering lately
  • just who's gonna save me
     
    now I have a cold, and no story to tell
  • and I'd marry you but I'm so unwell
    and although I could've been wrong
    well I don't think I was
  • he was totally wild
     
    and I've been wondering lately
  • just who's gonna save me
    you just should've been [warned/wise]
    [oh/our] hysterical child
  • where'd you learn to do that
  • PLAY TOO ..
