The Magnetic Fields - When My Boy Walks Down the Street lyrics

Grand pianos crash together when my boy walks down the street

There are whole new kinds of weather when he walks with his new beat

Everyone sings hallelujah when my boy walks down the street

Life just kind of dances through ya from your smile down to your feet

Amazing he's a whole new form of life

Blue eyes blazing and he's going to be my wife

The world does the hula-hula when my boy walks down the street

Everyone thinks he's Petula so big and yet so petite

Butterflies turn into people when my boy walks down the street

Maybe he should be illegal he just makes life too complete...

Amazing he's a whole new form of life

Blue eyes blazing and he's going to be my wife

Oh, shadows of echoes of memories

Oh, things that he brings that he found in the sea

Oh, shadows of echoes of memories of songs

Oh, how could he know that it won't be long...

Grand pianos crash together when my boy walks down the street

There are whole new kinds of weather when he walks with his new beat

Everyone sings hallelujah when my boy walks down the street

Life just kind of dances through ya from your smile down to your feet
