HALEY:
Your feet are on the ground, you're thinking sanely
You go about your business, happy and free
Then suddenly...
SOTHERN:
Your feet are off the ground
You're walking on moonbeams
It can happen to me, it can happen to you
And when it does
BOTH: Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

HALEY:
Danger, love at work
Even though you can't detect it
Listen, when you least expect it, it knocks you down

SOTHERN:
Danger, love at work
When you do things sort of stupid
You can bet that Mr. Cupid arrived in town

HALEY:
Oh, you're gonna go, you don't know when or where
You should close your windows, lock your doors
BOTH: You'd better be careful

SOTHERN:
Danger, love at work
It's that old familiar story
When you think that night is glorious, that's the start

HALEY:
So don't you think that you're too smart
For you'll slip and fall
BOTH: And break your heart

SOTHERN:
Oh, you're gonna go, you don't know when or where
So close your windows, lock your doors
BOTH: You'd better be careful

BOTH: Danger, love at work
SOTHERN:
It's that old familiar story
When you think that night is glorious, that's the start

HALEY: So don't you think that you're too smart
BOTH:
For you'll slip and fall
And you're gonna break, boom boom, your heart
