Lyrics
SECOND DATE STOMP
(Steve Multer 2002)
Taxi's got the meter runnin'
Don't you stop to tip a shoeshine, gotta make a date by 8 boy
Listen while I tell a little story
All about the glory of a true romance
By the watchful eye of a signori
Servin' cacciatore I took my chance
One blind date is a simple silly test of fate
No commitment to a lifelong mate and a goodnight kiss is bliss
(chorus)
But I'm grabbin' for the golden ring
Can't be late got a date to swing
Feelin' flush with a rosy blush
Love can wait for a Second Date
Third time you go out it's kinda' charming
Love can be alarming when the moon is high
Walkin' arm in arm is so disarming
Strums of a guitar sing out a lullaby
Second rate is the passion of a second date
An unnerving little tete-a-tete, will desire fly or die
(chorus)
Real estate ain't as risky as a second date
But I'm dancin' cross the Golden Gate cause my baby's kiss is bliss
(chorus)
Life is great on a second date
Taxi back uptown
