Short Term Affair Lyrics

(Duo : Björk/Tony Ferrino / Live BBC's Comic relief)

Tony Ferrino :
It's a short time affair
You're my children's au-pair
But I just couldn't bear

Tony Ferrino & Björk :
To keep my hands off you

Björk :
I was barely eighteen
What you did was obscene
But to me it felt clean

Tony Ferrino & Björk :
What else was I to do?

Tony Ferrino :
The memory still lingers
You're cooking the kids fish-fingers
And ironing

Björk :
Each morning you'd come down
In your paisley dressing gown
Then you sing
And the yearning started for a short-time affair

Tony Ferrino :
No intention to stray

Björk :
I was caught in your snare

Tony Ferrino :
But my wife was awake

Björk :
It was so debonaire

Tony Ferrino :
So I thought what the heck

Tony Ferrino & Björk :
I knew I couldn't resist

Tony Ferrino :
It was a short time affait

Björk :
You're the man you're the boss

Tony Ferrino :
When I find you right there

Björk :
Like the father I lost

Tony Ferrino :
Clean our silver-ware

Björk :
So to hell with the cost

Tony Ferrino & Björk :
Right then at once we kissed

Björk :
You took me to the kitchen, you're hands kinda started twitchin', felt so shy

Tony Ferrino :
Nothing could stop what followed, lucky for me you swallowed

Björk :
I know it's all over now

Tony Ferrino :
Try to be strong somehow

Björk :
I start a brand new life

Tony Ferrino :
Please, please don't tell my wife

Björk :
I won't stop loving you

Tony Ferrino :
Please, please don't tell my wife

Björk :
Au revoir, ciao, auf wiedersehen

Tony Ferrino :
We must never meet again

Björk :
Short time affair, heeeeeee aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ooooooooooooooo

Tony Ferrino :
Short time affair , eeeeee oooooooooooo
