I Wish My Eyes Were Ernies

(album: Anniversary Anthems - 2000)

She looks so divine and I can't see
Why she prefers that nerd to me
How come she ain't mine, I wanna be
I wish that I could be Ernie

I've got the blues, if I could choose
Then I would be in Ernie's shoes ooee
Who's he, Ernie
It would be my only chance
If I were wearing Ernie's pants
I wish my eyes were

I wish my eyes were Ernie's, I wish it could be true
I fantasize I have the eyes of Ernie's to see through
And if my eyes were Ernie's, then I would not be blue
Coz if my eyes were Ernie's, my eyes would be with you

Her hands in Ernie's as she walks by
It's gone way too far my mind
I'm shaking at the knees, she looks so fine
How comes Ernie's bird ain't mine

With Ernie's arse and Ernie's chest
In Ernie's under-kegs n' vest
I wish my eyes were, I wish my eyes were

I wish my eyes were Ernie's, I wish it could be true
Coz if my eyes were Ernie's my eyes would be with you

I would never let her go, if I were only Ernie oh
I wish my eyes were...

I wish my eyes were Ernie's, I wish it could be true
I fantasize I have the eyes of Ernie's to see through
And if my eyes were Ernie's, then I would not be blue
Coz if my eyes were Ernie's, my eyes would be with you

I wish my eyes were Ernie's, I wish it could be true
I fantasize I have the eyes of Ernie's to see through
And if my eyes were Ernie's, then I would not be blue
Coz if my eyes were Ernie's, my eyes would be with
Eyes would be with
Eyes would be with you
