about

CRUSH
I was reading a Glamour magazine while waiting in a hair salon. There was an intriguing article about crushes. According to the “experts”, it’s very healthy for one’s relationship. This song was a blast to write and a hoot to perform. I always envision catching a handsome man’s eye, giving a flirty come hither look, then pulling out a kazoo and breaking into a muppet like dance break.

lyrics

CRUSH I've got a crush on you.
I know that is the feeling when I almost hit the ceiling when you walk into a room.
My hands get kind of sweaty and I know it's kind of petty,
Hope I'm not too eager as the plea is kind of meager
CRUSH, I've got a crush on you.

FLAME, I'd like to be your flame,
The object of desire, heart is burning with a fire and I hope you feel the same,
A puppy would be luck to love you in old Kentucky,
I don't need to be your bride, just want to snuggle by your side,
FLAME, I'd like to be your flame.

I'd hate to admit that I've been hit by a sharp arrow of love,
Trying to face my warm embrace, could fit you like a glove!

SUNNY, you are my sunny day.
When the days are looks brighter, and my feet are feeling lighter and the clouds just slip away.
If you give me just a chance you know your life would be enhanced with a cheerful, kind affection, like a whoopee pie confection,
SUNNY, you are my sunny day.

I'm not trying to be funny with a song that sounds so sunny,
I'm not trying to be lame but I'd like to be your flame,
I could be your old shoe, if you put me in the queue,
Cause, I've got a crush on you.
