The Dean and I by 10cc Lyrics
[Intro: Group]
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
[Verse 1: Lol Creme]
Hey kids, let me tell you
How I met your mom
We were dancin' and romancin'
At the senior prom
It was no infatuation
But a gradual graduation
From a boy to a man
Let me tell you while I can
The soda pop came free
[Verse 2: Lol Creme]
Hey sis, one kiss
And I was heaven-bound
Now who would've guessed
Milton's Paradise Lost could be found?
But in the eyes of the dean, his daughter
Was doin' what she shouldn't oughta
But a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
The consequence should be
Church bells, three swells
The dean, his daughter, and me
[Bridge 1: Lol Creme & Kevin Godley]
They were dating in the park
They were smooching in the dark
Of a doorway for two
She whispered, "I love you"
"Ooh, you know I never felt this way before
Ooh, you know the elevator in my heart
Has gone awol, awol, awol, awol"
And then I kissed her
And when I kissed her
It's a wonderful world
When you're rolling in kisses
[Bridge 2: Kevin Godley]
Now, the paint is peeling
(Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways)
Now, and when the chips are down
(Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways)
Now, you kinda lose all feeling
(Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways)
Now, your head goes 'round and 'round
(Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways)
[Interlude 1: Kevin Godley & Lol Creme]
'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round
And 'round and 'round and 'round
I'm throwing myself off this train
[Bridge 3: Group]
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
[Interlude 2: Group]
Humdrum days, he's got
Humdrum ways, oh boy
[Verse 3: Lol Creme]
Hey, you know I'm really earning, now
My ship came in with a cargo of dollars
And my name's lit up on the prow
[Outro: Lol Creme]
It's a wonderful world
When you're rolling in dollars
(Rolling in dollars)
Rolling in dollars, now
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
Humdrum days and a-humdrum ways
[Verse 1: Lol Creme]
Hey kids, let me tell you
