LYRICS
When I said I could take or leave you
I swear that it wasn't a test
Now I'm holding an all night vigil
For the girl I loved the best
And the governor says "There's a light in your vest!"
While your homework rests idle on your desk
I mean, Irene, you're a whole lotta trouble
You see, I mean, Irene, you're a whole lotta trouble
Turn out the lights and hand me a torch
and we can go go far away
Silver screens and mezzanine dreams
are made of the words you say
And the bishop cries "You've got stars in your eyes!"
While your albums hide sadness in disguise
Hello my love, you're a whole lotta trouble
Good night, sleep tight, I'll make you breakfast in the morning
And the governor says "There's a light in your vest!"
While your homework rests idle on your desk
I mean, Irene, you're a whole lotta trouble
You see, I mean, Irene, you're a whole lotta trouble
Oh no!
Hello my love, you're a whole lotta trouble
Good night, sleep tight, I'll make you breakfast in the morning
