How Long Has This Been Going On?

As a tot, when I trotted in little velvet panties,

I was kissed by my sisters, my cousins, and my anties.

Sad to tell, it was hell, an inferno worse than Dante's.

So my dear I swore, "Never, never more!"

On my list, I insisted that kissing must be crossed out.

Now, I find I was blind, and old lady, how I lost out!

I could cry salty tears;

Where have I been all these years?

Little wow, tell me now :

How long has this been going on?

There were chills up my spine,

And some thrills I can't define.

Listen, sweet, I repeat :

How long has this been going on?

Oh, I feel that I could melt;

Into Heaven I'm hurled !

I know how Colombus felt,

Finding another world.

Kiss me once, then once more.

What a dunce I was before.

What a break! For Heaven's sake!

How long has this been going on?

Yes, I could cry salty tears;

Where have I been all these years?

Listen, you, tell me do

How long has this been going on?

What a kick

What a buzz

Boy, you click as no one does

Hear me sweet, I repeat

How long has this been going on?

Dear, when in your arms I creep,

That divine rendez-vous,

Don't wake me, if I'm asleep,

Let me dream that it's true!

Kiss me twice, then once more.

That makes thrice, let's make it four!

What a break! For Heaven's sake!

How long has this been going on?

How long has this... been going ... on?...
