This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Kizetsuru youna kouino naka
Kimochi uruyouja koimoa wa
Koshio furukazu kazoe temo
Totemo honkinya narenai Ai ai
Anata konomi no Sixty-ninie
Iyayo yamete wa OK sani
Moshi mo ainara magai mono de
Kurino hana sakya Bye bye bye bye
You make me love love.
I give you my gun gun.
Namie shiranai futari no mama nara
Wakari ae chatta noni ne
I just wanna make love.
Dakedo. I don't wanna fall in love.
Areyo koreytato kongara gatchau no
Itsu no maniyara sonna natchau no
Shiroi tani made madoron de ireba
Muneno doko kaga zuki zuki Shakin' Shakin'
Kanari Cool ni kidotte temo
Yappari shuuruna kokoro moyou
Sakete tourenu amai wanani
Migoto hamatte Ah ah ah
Is this love potion?
You've got love. mashingan
Koroshi monku wa dainamai itona
Namida tsubushita kimi no Smile
Beauty & Stupid A-ha-ha (Baby love you, love you like an animal.)
Beauty & Stupid A-ha-ha
I just wanna make love.
Dake do I don't wanna fall in love.
Usohappya kunarabete mitemo ne
Bakeno kawa hagasare chauyo ne
Maji dattara No no no no
Kizutsu suru youna koino naka
Kimochi mechakucha haato bara bara
Horeta hareta deshou bunoreba
Itomo tayasuku orokana doreiyo
Mekuru mekuyona hibi oyoi de
Mawari megutta tsuke karaete
Hana o meshimase Fake no barao
Mogota sakasete High high high
You're beauty queen of love.
I'm stupid slave of love.
I kiss on your knees.
Let me do what you want.
Komi no omochani sasete
Beauty & Stupid A-ha-ha (Baby love you, love you like an animal)
Beauty & Stupid A-ha-ha (Baby love me yeah! I wanna be you're dog)
Kimochi uruyouja koimoa wa
Koshio furukazu kazoe temo
Totemo honkinya narenai Ai ai
Anata konomi no Sixty-ninie
Iyayo yamete wa OK sani
Moshi mo ainara magai mono de
Kurino hana sakya Bye bye bye bye
