Poetry Man Songtext
von Phoebe Snow

Ooh, yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah
Oh-oh, yeah-eh

You make me laugh
′Cause your eyes they light the night
They look right through me
La-la-la-la
You bashful boy
You're hiding something sweet
Please give it to me yeah, to me

Oh, oh, talk to me some more
You don′t have to go
You're the poetry man
You make things all rhyme, yeah, yeah

Ooh, yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah
Oh-oh, yeah-eh


You are a genie
And all I ask for is your smile
Each time I rub the lamp
La-la-la-la
When I am with you
I have a giggling teenage crush
Then I'm a sultry vamp, yeah sultry vamp

Oh, oh, talk to me some more
You don′t have to go
′Cause you're the poetry man
You make things all right, yeah, yeah

Ooh, yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah
Oh-oh, yeah-eh

Talk to me some more
You don′t have to go
You're the poetry man
You make things all right

Ooh, yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah
Oh-oh, yeah-eh

So, once again
It′s time to say so long
And so recall the lull of life
La-la-la-la
You're going home now
Home′s that place somewhere you go each day
To see your wife, yeah, yeah, to see your wife


Oh, oh, talk to me some more
You know that you don't have to go
You're the poetry man
You make things all right, yeah

Oh, oh, talk to me some more
You know that you don′t have to go
You′re the poetry man
You make things all right
