"I Love My Lips" lyrics - STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN

I l-o-v-e m-y l-i-p-s
I l-o-v-e m-y, lips!
I l-o-v-e m-y l-i-p-s
I l-o-v-e m-y, lips!

If my lips ever left my mouth
Packed a bag and headed south
That'd be too bad, I'd be so sad
If my lips said "Adios, I don't like you and I think your gross"
That'd be too bad, I might get mad
That'd be too bad I might get mad (Go!)

I l-o-v-e m-y l-i-p-s
I l-o-v-e m-y, lips!

If my lips moved to Duluth, left a mess and took my tooth
That'd be too bad, I'd call my dad
That'd be too bad I'd be so sad, I might get mad and call my dad

Because I love my lips
Because I love my lips (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y l-i-p-s (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y, lips!

[Phone rings]
Ah, hang on guys
Hello?

[Dad:]
Yeah, Caleb, hey it's dad.
Listen, I heard you were trying to get a hold of me, is something wrong with your lips?

Dad my lips are fine. I'm in the studio right now just working on this song.
Hold on just a second dad.

[Singing:]
On the day I got my tooth, I had to kiss my great aunt Ruth, she had a beard (Ha ha ha, I remember that actually.)
And it felt weird (Yeah it was kinda weird, wasn't it?)
She had a beard and it felt weird (Actually, wasn't that the Christmas you gave her a razor?)

Because I love my lips
Because I love my lips (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y l-i-p-s (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y, lips!

[Dad in person:]
Hey Caleb, I just stopped by, you know speaking of lips did I ever tell you my story?
Ten days after I turned eight
I got lips stuck in a gate and my friends all laughed
Yeah, my friends all laughed
And I just stood there until the fire department came
And broke the lock with a crowbar and I had to spend
The next six weeks in lip rehab with this kid named Oscar
Who got stung by a bee right on the lip and we couldn't
Even talk to each other until the fifth week because both
Our lips were so swollen and when he did-

Dad, dad, I've heard this story like a million times.

[Dad:]
Sorry

[Singing:]
I really love my lips
I really love my lips
I really really love my lips
Because I love my lips (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y l-i-p-s (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y, lips!

Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba...

Left my mouth and headed south
And I got lips stuck in a gate
She had a beard and it felt weird
She had a beard and it felt weird

Because I love my lips
Because I love my lips
Because I - 'cause I love my lips
Because I love my lips (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y l-i-p-s (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y, lips! (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y l-i-p-s (I love my lips)
I l-o-v-e m-y, lips!
