Twenty times all in a row 

twenty times to my head a new blow

six isn't nearly and short is quite clearly

the longest and best way to go 

 

Twenty times less than before

twenty times bills at the core 

phone always ringing 

to my pill bottle singing

the noise as you open my door

 

Oh twenty more times if you please

Oh mama twenty more times in a row

Oh daddy twenty times begging cause she's

Oh twenty more times in love than you know 

 

twenty times cheese with my fruit 

twenty times blown at the flute 

tuba makes louder 

and clams in the chowder 

arrive in a holiday suit 

twenty times sour blue soup 

twenty times bend-over stoop 

sick in the middle 

with feet on the griddle 

hurting and you flew the coop 

 

Oh twenty more times if you please 

(2 times ten is twenty) 

Oh mama. twenty more times in a row 

(3 times 6 plus 2) 

Oh daddy. twenty times begging cause she's 

(quadruple your five's for a clean win) 

Oh twenty more times in love than you know 

(double or nothing-your through) 

 

twenty times old as the hills 

twenty times fried egg and chills 

mama's gone crazy 

and I'm much to lazy 

to sweep up after she spills 

 

Oh twenty more times if you please 

Oh mama twenty more times in a row 

Oh daddy twenty times begging cause she's 

Oh twenty more times in love than you know
