I Like Her Just The Way She Is
Something different for me - trying to make sense of non-sense
Country, acoustic folk, folk-rock, indie pop.
One man band - a wide range of acoustic based country, pop and folk crossover music.
Story behind the song
I don't suppose this is true hip-hop but it is the closest I've come.
Lyrics
I Like Her Just The Way She Is
V1:
I like milky coffee but she makes me call it Latte
She’s not even French or Belgian but it doesn’t matter, no way
She sprinkles chocolate on the top and calls it Cappuccino
And she makes me raise my cup each time, saying ‘Here’s to San Marino!’
I mean, San Marino?
Chorus 1:
Why do I let her get away with this? Why do I let her get away with this?
‘Cos she got zu zu zu zu zizz ; ‘cos she got the zu zu zu zizz
And I like her just the way she is - oh, oh, oh and I like her just the way she is
V2:
I love to eat good Chinese food but she prefers Italian
So we talk about it, compromise and then we go Italian
Now I’m a vegetarian, she says eating meat’s obscene
But she still eats fish and chicken ‘cos she says she needs the protein
I mean, protein?
Chorus 2:
Why do I let her get away with this? Why do I let her get away with this?
‘Cos she got zu zu zu zu zi; she got the zu zu zu zi
And she’ll always be the apple of my eye; yi, yi, yi, she’ll always be the apple of my eye
V3:
She keeps trying to improve me and change the way I think
So she’s locked all my computer games in a box beneath the sink
She says we must economize and strips me to the bone
Then she talks to her friend across the street for hours on the phone
I mean, for hours?
Chorus 3:
Why do I let her get away with this? Why do I let her get away with this?
‘Cos she got zu zu zu zu zee, she got the zu zu zu zee
And I know that she will always do for me, oh, oh, I see that she will always do for me
Bridge:
‘Cos she got the zu zu zu zizz, she’s got the zu zu zu zi
She got the zu zu zu zee and I know she always saves it just for me
Oh, I can see she saves it just for me
Tag Chorus:
‘Cos she got zu zu zu zu zee and I know that she will always do for me
‘Cos she got zu zu zu zu zi and she’ll always be the apple of my eye, yi, yi, yi
‘Cos she got zu zu zu zu zizz and I like her just the way she is
And I like her just the way she is; zu, zee, zi, zizz, I like her just the way she is
I like milky coffee and I call it milky coffee
