[English]

There must be something in the water

And there must be something 'bout your daughter

She said, "Our love ain't nothing but a monster"

"Our love ain't nothing but a monster with two heads" (ooh-ooh)

...

(Ooh-ooh)

...

I turn to you, you're all I see

Our love's a monster with two heads and one heartbeat

I turn to you, you're all I see

Our love's a monster with two heads and one heartbeat

We just got caught up in the moment

Why don't you call me in the morning instead?

Before we turn into a monster

Before we turn into a monster with two heads

I hope to God I'll love you harder

I hope to God I'll love you longer

If only I could live forever

If only I could hold you longer

There must be something in the water

And there must be something 'bout your daughter

She said, "Our love ain't nothing but a monster"

"Our love ain't nothing but a monster with two heads" (ooh-ooh)

...

(Ooh-ooh)

...

I turn to you, you're all I see

Our love's a monster with two heads and one heartbeat

I turn to you, you're all I see

Our love's a monster with two heads and one heartbeat

We just got caught up in the moment

Why don't you call me in the morning instead?

Before we turn into a monster

Before we turn into a monster with two heads

I hope to God I'll love you harder

I hope to God I'll love you longer

If only I could live forever

If only I could hold you longer

Well, I hope to God I'll love you harder

I hope to God I'll love you longer

If only I could live forever

If only I could hold you longer (ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh)

...
