Why don't you flex your magic muscle?
Space-age couple
Why do you hex your magic muscle?
Space-age couple
Why do you hustle 'n bustle?
Why don't you drop your cool tom-foolery
And shed your nasty jewelry?

And shed your nasty jewelry?

Space-age couple
Why don't you flex your magic muscle?
Hold a drinking glass up to your eye after you've
Scooped up a little of the sky
And it ain't blue no more
What's on the leaves ain't dew no more
What's on the leaves ain't dew no more
What's on the leaves ain't dew no more

[Refrain]
Space-age couple
Why don't you just do that?
Space-age couple
Why don't you just do that?

[Verse 3]
Hold a drinking glass up to your eye after you've
Scooped up a little of the sky
And it ain't blue no more
What's on the leaves ain't dew no more
