• Hey Johanna, you know I'm still here,
    Sitting on the floor beside of,
    Your wooden desk, it's kept so clean,
    Take better care of it, then me,

    ((Pause))

    You keep spending all your time,
    Inside your scientific books,
    Well, I've got this great subject for,
    An experiment you can do,

    -Chorus- x2
    We gotta get up, and set up,
    To go upward and run,
    'Till our heads hit the ceiling,
    When we've had our fun,

    We can go higher, my Johanna,
    And show them what we do,
    'Cause I don't wanna be anywhere,
    If I have to be without you,
    -End Chorus-

    Because textbooks won't know,
    These secrets I've told to,
    Your little ear when submerged in,
    The sound of slacking off,

    This is, the first time, last time,
    That we can be this close,
    And you are, could be my best find,
    Of what I wasn't looking for,

    -Chorus- x2
    We gotta get up, and set up,
    To go upward and run,
    'Till our heads hit the ceiling,
    When we've had our fun,

    We can go higher, my Johanna,
    And show them what we do,
    'Cause I don't wanna be anywhere,
    If I have to be without you,
    -End Chorus-

    But Johanna.. don't you know,
    Why I still hang around,
    Even if you tell me to get lost,
    I don't know the way..

    ((Pause))

    This would be my fair project,
    If you could be a subject,
    Which we both know you should,
    Since you're inexplicable,

    And you would be the perfect author,
    Writing script to my dreams,
    As I lay awake at night thinking of you,
    And how you've left me for them,

    Can't you put those old books away,
    Because science can wait,
    But I'm here, and it's right now that I,
    Am waiting for you to say...


    -Chorus- x2
    We gotta get up, and set up,
    To go upward and run,
    'Till our heads hit the ceiling,
    When we've had our fun,

    We can go higher, my Johanna,
    And show them what we do,
    'Cause I don't wanna be anywhere,
    If I have to be without you,
    -End Chorus-

    Johanna...
    You've settled into my heart now,
    I don't think I'll let go now,
    Because I really need to hear you say,
    Johanna, won't you love me?
