Add It Up
by The Violent Femmes
(Tunelist)

Day after day
I will walk and I will play
But the day after today
I will stop and I will start

B5
Why can't I get just one kiss
Why can't I get just one kiss
A
Believe me there'd be some things that I wouldn't miss
B5
But I look at your pants and I need a kiss

Why can't I get just one screw
Why can't I get just one screw
Believe me I'd know what to do
But something won't let me make love to you

Why can't I get just one fuck
Why can't I get just one fuck
I guess it's got something to do with luck
But I waited my whole life for just one

B5                         A                     B5
Day after day I get angry and I will say
             B5
That the day is in my sight
                       A                  B5
When I take a bow and say goodnight

Mo my momma momma mo my mum
Have you kept your eye your eye on your son
I know you've had problems your not the only one
but when your sugar left he left you on the run

Mo my momma momma mo my mum
take a look now what your boy has done
he's walking around like he's number one
he went downtown and he got him a gun
Don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me
You know you got my sympathy
But don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me

In your broken down kitchen at the top of the stairs
Can I mix in with your affairs
Share a smoke
Make a joke
Grasp and reach for a leg of hope

Words to memorize
Words hypnotize
Words make my mouth exercise  
Words all fail the magic prize
Nothing I can say when I'm in your thighs

Mo my momma momma mo my mother
I would love to love you lover
The city's restless it's ready to pounce
It go here in your bedroom ounce for ounce

Said I'm giving you a decision to make
Things to lose, things to take
Just as she was about ready to cut it up
She said wait a minute honey I'm gonna Add it up

I'm gonna Add it up
Add it up
See what you got you gotta
Add it up
Day after day
I get angry and I will say
That the day is in my sight
When I take a bow and say goodnight
Goodnight
