Song by Yo La Tengo<br /><br>

Well, the rainman comes with his magic wand <br>

And the judge says, "Mona can't have no bond." <br>

And the walls collide, Mona cries, <br>

And the rainman leaves in the wolfman's disguise. <br>

<br>

I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man. <br>

I wanna be your lover, baby, <br>

I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours. <br>

<br>

Well, the undertaker in his midnight suit <br>

Says to the masked man, "Ain't you cute!" <br>

Well, the mask man he gets up on the shelf <br>

And he says, "You ain't so bad yourself." <br>

<br>

I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man. <br>

I wanna be your lover, baby, <br>

I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours. <br>

<br>

Well, jumpin' Judy can't go no higher. <br>

She had bullets in her eyes, and they fire. <br>

Rasputin he's so dignified, <br>

He touched the back of her head an' he died. <br>

<br>

I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man. <br>

I wanna be your lover, baby, <br>

I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours. <br>

<br>

Well, Phaedra with her looking glass, <br>

Stretchin' out upon the grass. <br>

She gets all messed up and she faints„ <br>

That's 'cause she's so obvious and you ain't. <br>

<br>

I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man. <br>

I wanna be your lover, baby, <br>

I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.<br>

<br>
