[They Might Be Giants - It Was a Very Good Year lyrics]
When I was 103 it was a very good year
It was a very good year for chorus girls
Named Cupcake O'Leary
I’d sit them on my knee
They were repelled by me when I was 103
When I was the square root
Of a negative number it was a very good year
It was a very good year for dodecahedrons
In a state of quantum uncertainty
We would have sexual intercourse
While at the same time
We would not have sexual intercourse
When I was the square root
Of a negative number
When I was Maggie Thatcher
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for cat fights
With Joey Heatherton
And the Trilateral Commission
We would pull each other's hair
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for chorus girls
Named Cupcake O'Leary
I’d sit them on my knee
They were repelled by me when I was 103
When I was the square root
Of a negative number it was a very good year
It was a very good year for dodecahedrons
In a state of quantum uncertainty
We would have sexual intercourse
While at the same time
We would not have sexual intercourse
When I was the square root
Of a negative number
When I was Maggie Thatcher
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for cat fights
With Joey Heatherton
And the Trilateral Commission
We would pull each other's hair
It was a very good year
