A Hundred Lovers
A Hundred Lovers
A hundred lovers dressed in red
A hundred lovers lying in my bed
A hundred lovers, my big suprise
A hundred lovers peer through her eyes

A hundred lovers, that's what I said
A hundred lovers dance in her head
Demons taunt her, spirits guide her
A hundred lovers all inside her

She's 23 goddesses, a couple of Queens
Half a dozen sirens of the silver screen
And 69 bathing beauties lying in the sun
A hundred lovers rolled into one

A hundred lovers all looking fine
A hundred lovers all mine
A hundred lovers with all their charms
A hundred lovers lie in my arms

She's 23 goddesses, a couple of Queens
(Latifah and Divine)
Half a dozen sirens of the silver screen
(Oh so fine)
And 69 bathing beauties lying in the sun
A hundred lovers rolled into one

A hundred lovers lie in my arms

I think I may have missed it, did he mention the exact number of lovers? 

Ah jeez, he even uses the number 69 in there. Did a thirteen year old write this?
 23 + 2 + 6 + 69 = 100 At least he can count.


Still works for me.  Saw them back in Toronto around 1980something.  My future's still so bright.....
A little Cake-esque.
After having a thorough look at the lyrics, I conclude there is definitely nothing to save here.
Something about this song grates on my nerves.
A Hundred Lovers, keep it down, vases carry.

Whaaaat?!?! {#Eek} 
Having these guys follow James Brown is downright cruel.
When Tim and I to Brisbane went We found three ladies in a tent They were three And we were two So I booked one and Timbuktu Timbuk 3 just wouldn't be fair.
Pretty poor. If this were any more laid back it would be non-existent.
Timbuk 3 was a truly fantastic band (if you can call two people and a beat box a "band")
EY! White stripes!
Nothing bites the big one like Timbuk3. Their affected ennui gets old pretty quick. I wish they would just go ahead and die of boredom.
x 100
Timbuk 3 was a truly fantastic band (if you can call two people and a beat box a \"band\"). Brilliant, biting social commentary hiding under catchy tunes. Great, great stuff. Unfortunately, this is one of their worst songs. If you want to hear the real T3, try \"Dirty, Dirty Rice\", \"Grand Old Party\", or \"B-Side of Life\".
Sometimes there are good reasons bands go away...
Better than \"The Future\'s So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades.\"
oh my, flashback!! :D

Only good thing about this song is that I got to read this comment ;-)
Gosh this is awful. Please make it stop.
Not their best. Someone needs to upload Two Medicines or Dis**yland.
Man, this would be lame even if it weren\'t tiresomely derivative to begin with. Hell, Sugar Ray could write a better song than this. Oy. Ugh. Humbug.
Make it stop! For god\'s sake, make it stop!
yikes. its oingoboingoriffic.
