Verse 1
|-Riff-> |-Riff->
Standing at the door of the Pink Flamingo crying in the rain
|-Riff->
It was a kind of so-so love
|-Riff->
And I'm going to make sure it doesn't happen again
|-Riff-> |-Riff->
You and I had to be, the standing joke of the year
|-Riff->
You were a run around, a lost and found
|-Riff->
And not for me, I feel
Chorus
C G Bm C D
Take your hands off me, hey
C G Bm C D
I don't belong to you, you see
C G Bm C D
Take a look at my face, for the last time
C G
I never knew you, you never knew me
Bm C D
Say hello goodbye
|-Riff-> |-Riff->
Say hello and wave goodbye
Verse 2
|-Riff->
We try to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt
|-Riff->
And me in a suit, but it just wasn't me
|-Riff->
You're used to wearing less, and now your life's a mess
|-Riff->
So insecure you see
|-Riff->
Well I've put up with all the scenes,
|-Riff->
But this is one scene that's going to be played my way
Repeat Chorus
|-Riff-> |-Riff->
Under the deep red lights, I can see the make-up sliding down
|-Riff->
Well hey little girl you will always make up
|-Riff->
So take off that unbecoming frown
|-Riff-> |-Riff->
As for me well, I'll find someone who's not going cheap in the sale
|-Riff->
A nice little housewife, who'll give me the steady life
|-Riff->
And not keep going off the rails
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Riff and adlib vocal
