Hey, Janet
Yes, Brad?

I've got something to say
Uh huh
I really loved the skilful way
You beat the other girls to the bride's bouquet
Oh, Brad

The river was deep but I swam it (Janet)
The future is ours so let's plan it (Janet)
So please don't tell me to can it (Janet)
I've one thing to say and that's
Dammit, Janet, I love you

The road was long but I ran it (Janet)
There's a fire in my heart and you fan it (Janet)
If there's one fool for you then I am it (Janet)
I've one thing to say and that's
Dammit, Janet, I love you

Here's a ring to prove that I'm no joker
There's three ways that love can grow
That's good, bad or mediocre
Oh J-A-N-E-T I love you so

Oh, it's nicer than Betty Munroe had (oh Brad)
Now we're engaged and I'm so glad (oh Brad)
That you've met mum and you know dad (oh Brad)
I've one thing to say and that's
Brad I'm mad for you too

Oh, Brad

Oh, dammit

I'm mad

Oh, Janet

For you

I love you too
There's one thing left to do, and that's

Go see the man who began it (Janet)
When we met in his science exam-it (Janet)
Made me give you the eye and then panic (Janet)
Now I've one thing to say and that's
Dammit, Janet, I love you

Dammit, Janet

Oh Brad, I'm mad

Dammit Janet





I love you
