Name: 

And I have an eye for a maid
I link a pretty girly
With each pretty tune that’s played

They go together like sunny weather
Goes with the month of May
I’ve studied girls and music
So I’m qualified to say

A pretty girl is like a melody
That haunts you night and day
Just like the strain of a haunting refrain
She’ll start upon a marathon
And run around your brain

You can’t escape, she’s in your memory
By morning, night and noon
She will leave you and then come back again
A pretty girl is just like a pretty tune

A pretty girl is like a melody
That haunts you night and day
Just like the strain of a haunting refrain
She’ll start upon a marathon
And run around your brain

You can’t escape, she’s in your memory
By morning, night and noon
She will leave you and then come back again
A pretty girl is just like a pretty tune
