Such a Good Boy - Carly Simon

He asks her for permission

To take the car

Light his cigar

Play his guitar

Burn down the barn

He asks her for permission

To tie his shoes

To take a snooze

To read the news

To sing the blues

He’s such a good boy

A real mama’s boy

She treats him like a toy

He’s such a good boy

He asks her for permission

To get a tan

To play his hand

To blow a grand

To be a man

He asks her for permission

To say goodnight

To see Snow White

To watch the fight

'Cause she’s always right

She points her finger

And waves her hand

And acts just like a Queen bee

But he’s foolin?

her

'Cause he doesn’t ask

Her for permission

When he comes to see me
