Timmy's walking tall with his best laid plans
Taking Penny Lane to the sixth grade dance
And he's bringing flowers
He's looking pretty sharp in his dad's red tie
Gonna hold her hand if he's not too shy
He's bringing flowers
Don't every girl love flowers?
Looking round for Penny for the slow song at the end
And he found her looking pretty in the arms of his best friend
They were dancing in
Slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) mo
Slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) mo
Jimmy's losing sleep 'cause he thinks it's time
Ever since he met her at the five & dime
He's been seeing Jenny
He's waiting for the moment when he makes his move
Had to plan it out 'cause he's not real smooth
But he holds her steady
Ain't every boy born ready?
Standing on the front porch, he's about to be the man
I swear he had it 'til mom pulled up in the minivan
Up the driveway in
Slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) mo
Slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) mo
Like a car crash at the race
A pie right to the face
Falling down the stairs
Finding out she cares
Don't it last forever when you never saw it coming at all?
You better take a chair and prepare for the wrecking ball
Coming at ya in
Slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) mo
Slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) slow (oh oh oh) mo
