Rickie Lee Jones - Chuck E.'s in Love



How come he dont come and p.l.p. with me
Down at the meter no more?
How come he turn off the t.v.
And he hang that sign on the door?
We call and we call how come? we say
What could make a boy behave this way?
So He's learned all of the lines, and every time he
Dont stutter when he talks
And its true! its true! he sure has aquired a
Cool and inspired sorta jazz when he walks
Wheres his jacket and his old blue jeans?
This aint healthy this is some kinda clean?

Well I think that chuck es in love
chuck es in love
chuck es in love
chuck es in love

I can't believe what he said to me
This is something I have to see is he here?
Look in the poolhall is he here?
Look in the drugstore is he here?
No, he dont come here no more

But Ill tell you what I saw him
He was sittin behind us when we were at the Pantages
And whatever it is that he's got up his sleeve
I hope it isnt contagious
Whats her name? is that her there?
Oh Christ, I think hes even combed his hair!
Is that her? whats her name?
Oh, we will never be the same.
But thats not her
I know whats wrong--
Chuck es in love with the little girl whos singing this song

Don't you know

chuck es in love
chuck es in love
chuck es in love
chuck es in love
Chuck es in love with me
