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 oh my ! , 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 Clombus 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 ?

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 ?... .
