    The Bed

    by: Soundtracks (other tracks) soundtrack

    Oh the bed
    Oooh the bed
    Ahhh the bed
    Oh the bed
    Mmmm the bed
    I love the bed
    You can lie in bed
    You can lay in bed
    You can die in bed
    You can pray in bed
    You can live in bed
    You can laugh in bed
    You can give your heart
    Or break your heart in half in bed
    You can tease in bed
    You can please in bed
    You can squeeze in bed
    You can freeze in bed
    You can sneeze in bed
    Catch the fleas in bed
    All of these
    Plus eat crackers and cheese in bed
    Oh the bed is a thing
    Of feather and spring
    Of wire and wood
    Invention so good
    Oh the bed comes complete
    With pillow and sheet
    With blanket electric
    And breath antiseptic
    Let there be sheets
    Let there be beds
    Foam rubber pillows
    Under our heads
    Let there be sighs
    Filling the room
    Scanty pajamas
    By Fruit of the Loom
    You can eat in bed
    You can beat in bed
    Be in heat in bed
    Have a treat in bed
    You can rock in bed
    You can roll in bed
    Find your cock in bed
    Lose your soul in bed
    You can lose in bed
    You can win in bed
    But never never never never
    Never never never never
    Never never never
    Never can you sin in bed!
