I Doo Wop

Your coffee on the nightstand 
I flip wake up wake up handstands watch
your bathing beauty backstroke
you’re a cutie windmill
arm spokes in your bathtub full of sleep,
baby baby la dee dah

Dreams all warm and gooey
salted caramel fresh-baked
chewy sugar cookies I’m no rookie
at this nookie business
bookie got your number
every time, dial 9-1-1

I dare you double dare you
throw your crayons in the sun to let those
joyous colors run until the sky melts
liquid light and felt my eyes upon
your endless
box of night, pack of bright

Our day boat sailing tide is out now
shouting holy cow we’re late
ow! pull you reel you kiss you
fish you in my arms don’t miss we’re
getting to the church
on time, I do. I do. I do. Wop.
