[Intro]
That I was taken
(So I took another look)
Immense!
(To form a perfect tense)
[Refrain]
“have,” “has,” or “had”
(Could it be that bad)
Taken to the dry cleaners,
we couldn’t wear our winter coats…
… anymore.
[Bridge]
That I was taken
(So I took another look)
Immense!
(To form a perfect tense)
[Refrain]
“have,” “has,” or “had”
(Could it be that bad)
Taken from the oven,
the children excitedly ate…
… the fresh cookies.
(Woopieeee!}
[Bridge]
That I was taken
(So I took another look)
Immense!
(To form a perfect tense)
[Outro]
“have,” “has,” or “had”
(Could it be that bad)
Taken down to the cellar,
the darkness obscured the details…
… of the room.
