Lyrics
I saw her coming toward me and my heart skipped a beat
I pulled myself up tall and I planted my feet.
I saw our life together, I saw her as mine, and then she said,
?Sir, could you tell me the time??
I?m not a genius and I?m sure not wise
but God he gave me a good pair of eyes.
I see the writing, big and clear on the wall
I know she?s not leaving with me no, not at all
In the land of Stairmaster, country of the six pack abs
Will I ever pass muster, can she see what I have?
I don?t want to be here, watching tv all alone.
My heart?s younger than my body, hey, there?s somebody home!
chorus
Is she searching for a rich man, or just somebody young,
the answer is somewhere on the tip of my tongue.
I?m not as good as many but I?m better than the rest.
Right here in the middle where it suits me best.
chorus
