I Said My Pajamas [And Put On My Prayers]

(One little, two little kisses or more

Make you do things you never did before)

I climbed up the door then opened the stairs

I said my pajamas and put on my prayers

I turned off the bed and crawled into the light

And all because you kissed me goodnight

Next morning I woke and scrambled my shoes

I shined up an egg, then I toasted the news

I buttered my tie and took another bite

And all because you kissed me goodnight

By evening we felt normal, so we went out again

You said goodnight, and kissed me.

I hurried home and then

I climbed up the door and opened the stairs

I said my pajamas and put on my prayers

I turned off the bed and crawled into the light

and all because you kissed me goodnight

(Here is what happened, we understand

To a singer and the guy who leads a band)

I started to sing, the words I forgot

My brain's in a whirl, I don't which is what

But I found the reason I'm high as a kite

It's all because you kissed me goodnight

I lost all the music, forgot my baton

I dreamed while the boys in the band played on

You made me a dunce who's not very bright

And all because you kissed me goodnight

By evening we felt normal, so we went out again.

You said goodnight, and kissed me.

I hurried home and then

I lifted the preacher and called up the phone

I spoke to the dog and I threw your ma a bone

'Twas midnight and yet, the sun was shining bright

And all because you kissed me

You never could resist me

And all because you kissed me goodnight
