Lyrics

I was so excited, it was gonna be the night
We’d stop into the malt shop, then the drive-in lights
A brand new boy beside me, under a summer sky
And Godzilla on the big screen, I could almost touch the sky
He held my hand so sweetly, I thought my dream came true
But when I said “slow down, boy,” his smile turned into blue…
He tried to hold me closer, too close for my heart
I said “that’s not the way for us to start”
And then he turned so mean, left me asking why…
Only Heaven and Godzilla know why!
The monster stomped across the screen, the music shaking loud
But there I sat in silence, feeling small inside the crowd
He muttered something cruel to me, and turned his face away
So I stepped out the car door, with nothing left to say
I thought he was a dream boy, a shining summer flame
But all I heard was laughter when I called his name…
He tried to hold me closer, too close for my heart
I said “that’s not the way for us to start”
And then he turned so mean, left me asking why…
Only Heaven and Godzilla know why!
I thought he’d be my true love (true love, true love)
But he just made me cry (cry cry cry)
Now I’m singin’ to the silver screen
With the monster walking by!
He tried to hold me closer, too close for my heart
I said “that’s not the way for us to start”
And then he turned so mean, left me asking why…
Only Heaven and Godzilla know why!
Only Heaven and Godzilla…
Only Heaven and Godzilla…
Only Heaven and Godzilla know why!
