Almost caught a fish Kentucky 'cause it didn't bite
Always thought a fish could not be caught that didn't bite
And the Father of the Moon is getting so excited
And the thought of loving you is getting so exciting
And the Father of the Needle's getting so excited.
And the thought of rubbing you is getting me so exciting.
And the bottom part of you is gettin' so excited.
And the thought of rubbin you is getting so exciting.
And the father of the newborn's get so excited.
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting.
And the thought of loving you is gettin' so exciting.
And the thought of rubbin' you is getting so exciting.
Bill Danoff, the guy who wrote this song, has the lyrics to Afternoon Delight on his website (billdanoff.com) and the lyrics do say "rubbin'", not "loving."
And the thought of revenue is getting so exciting.
And the thought of loving you is getting so exciting.
But you've got some Beenie-Weenies and they taste just right.
But you've got some dinner waiting and I think I might.
I always though a fish could not be caught who didn't bite
But you've got some bait a waitin' and I think I might, like nibblin'
A little afternoon delight.
I always though a fish could not be caught who wouldn't bite
But you've got some bait a waitin' and I think I might try nibbling
A little afternoon delight.
I always thought our friendship could't stop but it just might
I always though a fish could not be caught who didn't bite
I always thought that fish don't like me 'cause they didn't bite.
I always thought a fish could not be caught who didn't bite.
I always thought that fish don't like me 'cause they didn't bite.
I always thought a fish could not be caught who didn't bite.
I thought I shot a fish who couldn't see or bite.
I always thought a fish could not be caught who didn't bite.
I went off to fish, caught nothing 'cause he didn't bite
I always thought a fish could not be caught who didn't bite
Makin' farts at night.
Makin' sparks ignite.
Pickin' up whose workin' up a appetite
Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite (B. Danoff)
Ramattos always been.
When it's right is right.
My motto's always been
'when it's right, it's right'.
Robins stick themselves together, make the sparks ignite
Rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite
Romano's always said, 'When it's right, it's right'.
or
Romano's always been 'When it's rye, it's rye'.
My motto's always been 'When it's right, it's right.'
Sky monkeys in flight
Afternoon delight.
Skyrockets in flight
Afternoon delight.
Sky rockets in flight
After noon-daylight
After noon-daylight.
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight.
Skyrockets at night, afternoon delight
Skyrockets in flight, afternoon delight
The father of the mule is gettin' so excited.
The thought of loving you is gettin' so exciting.
The thought of loving you is getting so exciting
or
The father of the year is getting so excited
or
The father of the year is getting so excited
The thought of rubbing you is getting so exciting
The thought of rubbing you is gettin' so exciting.
The thought of loving you is gettin' so exciting.
The tought of rubbin' you is gettin' so exciting.
The thought of lovin' you is gettin' so exciting.
