Lyrics
We Couldn?t Ask For Anything More
Song and lyrics by Eddie Pollock
Starting back in seventh grade,
At dances we drank lemonade,
?Cause alcohol was not condoned
By parents who did chaperone.
And girls were curiosities
With funny curves and bony knees,
And smiles in which were neatly crammed
Metal, wire and rubber bands.
And though these creatures newly teens,
Were hardly ever beauty queens,
We couldn?t have asked for anything more- no sir.
We couldn?t have asked for anything more-
We were enchanted.
We couldn?t ask for anything more.
Girls with sixteen years we found
Had more to offer by the pound,
Except we saw more often than not
Faces covered with acne spots.
And those with cheeks devoid of zits
Had acne crème which stuck to lips
When making out in the living room
Or necking under a summer?s moon.
But we kissed as happy as a lark
?Cause you can?t see acne in the dark.
And we couldn?t have asked for anything more- no sir.
We couldn?t have asked for anything more-
We didn?t mind it.
We couldn?t ask for anything more.
The mysteries of women are a well kept secret
Men have tried to find ?round the world.
But frankly, I don?t care much about no secret
Long as I can find me a girl.
