When we were in love I pretended you didn't exist That way I loved you more You suggested we get married And move into a house I suggested that we jump overboard And live underwater in the lost city of Atlantis Where mermaids sing And tuxedoed dolphins bring you breakfast One year later, I was transfered to the moon Worse pay, better hours I was transfered to the moon Worse pay, better fellow workers I built our love out of blood I went to the dentist and told him "Take out my heart" I feel better than James Brown I feel better now I feel better than James Brown I was attending Mardi Gras with Fidel Castro Bucksome cross dressers Threw fake gold coins at our feet As we discussed the fate of the revolution Suddenly, CIA men dressed in bikinis Tried to stab us with fountain pens Fidel blew mustard gas from his cigar And immobilized the lot of them 19 tequilas later we had a deal Havana goes back to the mob And Fidel and I open a chain of Kentucky Fried Chicken shops Ain't life sweet? I feel good I feel better than James Brown I feel better now I feel better than James Brown I feel better now, how do you feel? I feel better than James Brown I feel better now I feel better than James Brown I feel better now I feel better than James Brown I feel better now, how do you feel?
