Citronella

Citronella lives on my block
She rides the bus with me
Citronella gets off on the second bus stop
She's the prettiest girl in the eighth grade

Citronella, I love you I just want you to know
Citronella, I need you so badly badly badly
You're the only girl for me in the eighth grade

I'm gonna ask Citronella to the Halloween dance
We can dress up like king and queen
Citronella goes with some other guy to the Halloween dance
They dress up like doctor and nurse

O Lord, I don't know what I'm gonna do
It's just tearing me apart
Lord, I've never felt so blue
How am I supposed to mend this broken heart?

Citronella, I love you
I just want you to know
Citronella, I need you so badly badly badly
You're the only girl for me in the eighth grade

I'm gonna give Citronella one more chance
To prove who is the best man
Gonna ask her to the Christmas dance
I hope she'll say yes because
My daddy's gonna pick us up in the big white van
We can sit in the way way back
I'm gonna take Citronella by the hand
I'm gonna tell her that,I'm gonna tell her that, you know

Citronella, I love you I just want you to know
Citronella, I need you so badly badly badly
You're the only girl for me in the eighth grade
