Hold That Thought Lyrics

She broke down and cry at the strip mall acupuncture
While the world went on outside
The Chinese doctor took her arm,
Gazed at the floor and read her wrist for the secrets in her mind.
'Here's your medicine', she said,
'If you not smile at him, then someone else will'.
You hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought, too.
Uh, uh, uh, uh

Always the 36 ways I'm not available
On the simple easy...
Later on that evening I'm on a beach in Santa Monica
It was a very risky start
Suppose this stupid chart is right
In a year you'll still feel the same

Oh, you hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought, too!
Uh, uh, uh!

Did you ever see the film where a man is giving spectacles
That make the world look upside down?
We fought about the place, but in time, this somehow readjust
And when we take the glasses off,
The eyes is always the sky below him
And he falls again

But you hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought
You hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought
You hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought!
Uh, uh, uh

She broke down and cried at the strip-mall acupuncturist While the world went on outside The Chinese doctor took her arm, Gazed at the floor and read her wrist for the secrets in her life. 'Here's your medicine,' she said, 'If you not smile at him, then someone else will.' You hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought, too. Ya-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

I was shown the 36 ways I'm not available On a simple easy chart Later on that evening on a beach in Santa Monica It was a very risky start Suppose this stupid chart is right In a year will you still feel the same

Oh well, you hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought, too Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ya-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Did you ever see the film where a man is given spectacles That make the world look upside-down? He falls about the place, but in time he somehow readjusts And when they take the glasses off, The eyes he's always had see sky below him And he falls again

But you hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought You hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought You hold that thought, and I'll hold that thought

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
