A Love Like Morticia And Gomez (nuvocoke@gmail.com)

(verse) Romeo and Juliet... two of the most recognized lovers in
history... defied their families, ended up a tragedy, that's not
the way true love is meant to be...

(CHORUS) so, screw Romeo and Juliet, I want a love like Morticia
and Gomez... when it comes around to who's really gettin' down,
Querida and Bubula have beaten all the rest...

(singalong) screw Romeo and Juliet, I want a love like Morticia
and Gomez (x2)

(verse) Cleopatra and Antony started out making love along the
Nile... but the twists of fate left them in a sorry state and their
ends came in a most tragic style...

(CHORUS) so, screw Cleopatra and Antony, I want a love like Morticia
and Gomez... he would die for her, he would kill for her, either way,
he'd say, "what bliss"... (singalong: screw Cleopatra and Antony)(x2)

(bridge) they danced the Mamushka while Nero fiddled, they danced the
Mamushka at Waterloo... they danced the Mamushka for Jack the Ripper,
and now, they dance their Mamushka for all of you...

(verse) Josephine and Napoleon may have ruled the kingdom of romance,
but then Gomez says "Cara Mia! when you speak French, it drives me
wild," and trails sweet kisses up her arm, they don't stand a chance

(CHORUS) so, screw Josephine and Napoleon, I want a love like Morticia
and Gomez... from the very first glance by an open grave, where she
looked so beautiful, pale and mysterious... (singlong - all three couples)
