Well he caressed her breast she hi dee died his thigh
And the pill lit on the pillow amongst the wine bottle and cheese
They took a Polaroid picture her so naughty in slip yes he did
And just when I thought it couldn't get no better then it did

Just when you think it can't get no better then it does
Well it's always so much better than it ever was
It seems like all the good things come at once, yes they do
Just when you think it can't get no better then it does

Well they knew what they liked they were neither one of them naive
She said I'll probably get in trouble but this time I don't care
Well I should go to work but I'd rather be with you instead ehed
And just when I thought it couldn't get no better then it did

She taught school and he played the five string banjo
She lived here in town and he traveled the whole world wide
Well as she packed the lunch brought the wine he drove the car and scored a lid
Mmm and just when I thought it couldn't get no better then it did

It was a perfect day for a dalliance and a picnic ooh
And a riverbank was an excellent place to love
Well the sun was a shining and the birds were a singing overhead (chirpy, slurpy)
And just when I thought it couldn't get no better then it did
