Verse 1
Hangin' round downtown by myself
and I had so much time to sit and think about myself
and then there she was
like double cherry pie
yeah there she was
like disco super-fly
Chorus
Riff Bm G A
I smell sex and candy here
Who's that loungin' in my chair?
Who's that casting devious stares in my direction?
Mama this surely is a dream
Bm G D - A - Bm - G - F#
Yeah mama this surely is a dream
Verse 2
Hanging round downtown by myself
and I've had too much caffeine and I was thinkin bout myself
and then there she was
in platform double suede
yeah there she was
like disco lemonade
Chorus
Riff Bm G A
I smell sex and candy here
Who's that loungin' in my chair?
Who's that casting devious stares in my direction?
Mama this surely is a dream

Yeah mama this surely is a dream
Bm G D - A - Bm - G - F#

Riff Bm G A
I smell sex and candy here
Who's that loungin' in my chair?
Who's that casting devious stares in my direction?

Yeah mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this surely is a dream
Yeah mama this must be my dream
