lyrics

Come on, pretty baby, you know what I want to do
I wanna come around about midnight and make some monotypes with you

Well, I was walking around the other night
I saw some things I think you'd like
A couple presses and a few cans of ink
Oh now baby I know what you think
But hey, forget the risk
Let's have an artistic tryst

Security comes by at 11:02
But after that they don't care what you do
So let's go down to room 313
They won't mind as long as we leave it clean
Oh no, they won't care
I hope I see you there

I expect you guessed what happened next
We got there and our plans were vexed
My baby started picking the lock
But I was worried that she would get caught
And then, it came to mind
I remembered good old Yves Klein

I said, "Hey, hey, baby we don't need a press
Let's go home take off your dress
Lay some paper down on the ground
I'll ink you up and roll you around
Oh yeah, it's nothing new
I wanna make some monotypes with you"

So come on, pretty baby you know what I want to do
I wanna come around about midnight and make some monotypes with you
