Stacy, can I come over after school?

We can hang around by the pool

Did your mom get back from the business trip?

Is she there or is she trying to give me the slip?

You know I'm not the little boy that I used to be

I'm all grown up now baby can't you see?

Stacy, do you remember when I mowed your lawn?

Your mom came out with just a towel on.

I could tell she likes me from the way she stared;

And the way she said, "You missed a spot over there."

And I know that you think it's just a fantasy.

But, since your dad walked out, your mom could use a guy like me.
