It's at times like this the great heaven knows    That we wish we had not so many clothes   So let's loosen up with a playful tease    Like all lovers did through the centuries      We're just following ancient history    If I strip for you will you strip for me?    We're just following ancient history    If I strip for you will you strip for me?    Uh-huh-huh      When it gets so hot, the end of the day    You may find your clothes getting in the way   If a pretty dress hides your true desire   Fold it nice and slow, throw it on the fire      We're just following ancient history    If I strip for you will you strip for me?    We're just following ancient history   If I strip for you will you strip for me?   Uh-huh-huh      We don't need to see what the butler saw   Or a mirrored room with a mirrored floor    All those sneaky looks gazing down on you   Are no substitute for our rendezvous      We're just following ancient history    If I strip for you will you strip for me?   We're just following ancient history   If I strip for you will you strip for me?   Uh-huh-huh      It's at times like this the great heaven knows    That we wish we had not so many clothes    So let's loosen up with a playful tease    Like all lovers did through the centuries      If you think it's cheap or a bit risqué   Please don't say a word I'll just slip away    I am not a man who believes in lies    Like an octopus with big x-ray eyes      Don't freeze up girl, you're looking quite a sight   Be generous, I want it all tonight!      We're just following ancient history   If I strip for you will you strip for me?    We're just following ancient history    If I strip for you will you strip for me?
