What Do I Need with Love

Jeanine Tesori, Dick Scanlan

Oh, the places I would like to show you
Although I hardly know you
I've a funny feeling we make a perfect pair
Famous sites I want to see you seeing
Then nights of you and me-ing
Me. You. We
Wait a minute! Just a minute! No, no, no, no!

I'm a Joe with just one aim
Ev'ry night to date a diff'rent dame
Call each one of 'em the same pet name
""Hey, baby!""
In a row, I've got my ducks
Loads of gals to give me loads of yucks
Leave the cooing to the other clucks
I don't mean maybe
Got it good. What do I need with love?

Always practice what I preach
Keep temptation out of easy reach
Stick to dolls who wash their hair in bleach
I'm happy
Come and go the way I choose
Never gonna sing the tied-down blues
Other guys would kill to fill my shoes
No wing-clipped sappy
Got it good. What do I need with love?

That was a near miss, talk about a close shave
Flirted with disaster
There must be someone up there watching over me
Talk about a four-leaf-clover-me
Peter Rabbit's missing footsie
Means I roll without a tootsie
Got it good. What do I need with love?
I got it good. What do I need with love?

Skip the vows and all that rot
Tell the minister that ""I do"" not
Bright and breezy is the
Birds and bees-y is the
Free and easy is the life I've got
Without her

Although I hardly know you
Got it it good
What do I need with love?
I've got it good
Oh baby I've got it good
But now I've got it
I've got it bad

I'm a joe who changed his game
I fell in love with a wonderful dame
And now my life won't be the same
I'm in love!
Yes I finally fell in love!
