I think we would better tactfully put
An end to the evening now, a Little kicking Over the traces goes A long way at this age. And we were both bundled Up in nice tweeds and flannels. What she needed she couldn't have. For all I knew she was stone-deaf. I said "front page," She heard "teenage," So I tried "read" But she heard "sweet." I think we would better tactfully put An end to the evening now, a Little kicking Over the traces goes A long way at this age. And we were both bundled Up in nice tweeds and flannels. What she needed she couldn't have. For all I knew she was stone-deaf. "There's a bag of Sweets floating Around somewhere, let Me see, I really Had it with me When I visited The Grand Prix." |

And I think once about you, like I should, and
I feel so lucky too. Like you, I don't feel at ease so easily. It's so easy to walk on, ...and put up the collar of my jacket. The more I show, the more I go. We're both anxious to say hello. Just put every story between brackets. So I turn my back and scrunch up into an awkward position too, somewhat unnatural too. Well I really wish we felt closer to each other too. I thank you for having me around but wouldn't it be better if we just wrote, and make up some kind of anecdote to make up for each one I forgot. |

In the morning we soaped each other down.
Smooth down my nightgown. Hungry, 'cause the smells from the kitchen filled the room. Don't wear your perfume today. "We had this habbit, ...we did." ...and your water 's sloshing against the sides of the bathtub. And I smeared our faces with cream. |

As soon as I got a paycheck,
You ask me to make it hightech And to bleach my flecks. Tabloids will be all over it. Do you think I should be timid? all licketysplit. 'Upswing, plaything!' That's very flattering. 'Brand new!' And that's just a preview. 'One-two!' I wouldn't know how to... As soon as I got a paycheck, You ask me to make it hightech And to bleach my flecks. Tabloids will be all over it.

"Your boy is not stupid, miss.
He does not learn easily But he gets there bit by bit, miss." So he bit his lip And said "No more for a while." 'cause he knew A boy's best friend is his mother. "A man with money To spend has no lack of friends, honey." And he bit his lip. 'Cause he knew A boy's best friend is his mother. "A man with money To spend has no lack of friends, honey."

Some girl at the door is asking to see you.
Well-to-do, looks like aircrew. She liked the view of you. Some girl at the door is asking to see you. She's just doing a background-check about a kind of hijack. Some girl at the door is asking to see you. Like a prize money can't buy, honey I'm here to blow-dry. |

You smashed your new car in the fog. "...so
shall we sit in a smoker or a non-smoker?" Walk smartly into the room. Slink around in full costume. What a nice honeymoon. Brown hair shot with grey, it's a shame you're gay. I just stood there, you just loved my hair. |

"I've got to hang up now, ...got to write a song
somehow. Because today went out the small backway. I stood there on some freeway. I catched an ashtray. Today I can handle whatever comes up. You are still sulking over what has happened to your review. Went down to the U-turn, just like a confident girl and got a ride. And got it open-eyed just like a confident girl. Bye bye miss Hyde. |
