When I was young and simple I don't recall the date I met a handsome captain of the guard He visited my chambers one evening rather late In tandem with a husky Saint Bernard
At first I was astonished And tears came to my eyes But, later when I asked him to resume He said, to my surprise My dear, it isn't wise Where love is concerned one must freshen the bloom
Once, yes, once for a lark Twice, though, loses the spark One must never deny it But after you try it you vary the diet
Said my handsome young guard Yes, I know, but it's hard But no matter how nice I never do anything twice
La la da da de-ah da dum
I think about the baron Who came at my command And proffered me a riding crop and chains The evening that we shared Was meticulously planned He took the most extraordinary pains He trembled with excitement His cheeks were quite aglow And afterword he cried to me, encore!
He pleaded with me so to have another go I murmured carressingly, whatever for?
Once, yes, once for a lark Twice, though, loses the spark Once, yes, once is delicious But twice would be vicious Or just repetitious
Someone's bound to be scarred Yes, I know that it's hard But, no matter the price I never do anything twice
La la la la la la la la la la
And then there was the abbot Who worshipped at my feet Who dressed me in a wimple and in veils He made a proposition which I found rather sweet And handed me a hammer and some nails
In time we lay contented And he began again By fingering the beads around our waists I whispered to him then We'll have to say amen For I had developed more catholic tastes
Once, yes, once for a lark Twice, though, loses the spark
As I said to the abbot I'll get in the habit, but not in the habit You've my highest regard And I know that it's hard Still, no matter the price I'd never do anything twice
Once, yes, once can be nice Love requires some spice If you've something in view Or something to do, totally new I'll be there in a trice But I never do anything twice
Except... No I never do anything twiceTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
