(nothing's Gonna) Turn Me Off (Of You)

My friends all say you're nuts and they're probably right
And no I'd never take you to a rock fight
But nothing's gonna turn me off of you...
I'm not as desperate as I probably seem
You really are the girl of some of my dreams
And nothing's gonna turn me off of you...
I need someone here for a change
I need someone who's kinda strange
I need somebody here to annoy
I need someone to talk during
The Munsters so that I can say shut up
And not get punched even though we all know
That the Munsters is a lousy show
It doesn't matter if you're sort of a leech
Or if you haven't bathed in over a week
Because nothing's gonna turn me off of you...
And no I'd never take you to a rock fight
But nothing's gonna turn me off of you...
I'm not as desperate as I probably seem
You really are the girl of some of my dreams
And nothing's gonna turn me off of you...
I need someone here for a change
I need someone who's kinda strange
I need somebody here to annoy
I need someone to talk during
The Munsters so that I can say shut up
And not get punched even though we all know
That the Munsters is a lousy show
It doesn't matter if you're sort of a leech
Or if you haven't bathed in over a week
Because nothing's gonna turn me off of you...
