Cousin Dupree

Well, I've kicked around a lot since high school
 I've worked a lot of nowhere gigs
 From keyboard man in a rock 'n' ska band
 To haulin' boss crude in the big rigs
 Now I've come back home to plan my next move
 From the comfort of my Aunt Faye's couch
 When I see my little cousin Janine walk in
 Well, all I could say was, "Ouch"
 Honey, how you've grown
 Like a rose
 Well we used to play
 When we were three
 How about a kiss for your cousin Dupree
 How about a kiss for your cousin Dupree
 She turned my life into a living hell
 In those little tops and tight capris
 I pretended to be readin' the National Probe
 As I was watchin' her wax her skis
 On Saturday night she walked in with her date
 And backs him up against the wall
 I tumbled off the couch and heard myself sing
 In a voice I never knew I had before
 Honey, how you've grown
 Like a rose
 Well we used to play
 When we were three
 How about a kiss for your cousin Dupree
 How about a kiss for your cousin Dupree
 I'll teach you everything I know
 If you teach me how to do that dance
 Life is short and quid pro quo
 And what's so strange about a down-home family romance?
 ♪
 One night we're playin' gin by a cracklin' fire
 And I decided to make my play
 I said, "Babe, with my boyish charm and good looks
 How can you stand it for one more day?"
 She said, "Maybe it's the skeevy look in your eyes
 Or that your mind has turned to applesauce
 The dreary architecture of your soul"
 I said, "But what is it exactly turns you off?"
 Honey, how you've grown
 Like a rose
 Well we used to play
 When we were three
