Taking My Business Elsewhere |
If she’s not here by now |
Then I guess she’s not coming |
If she’s not here by now |
Then I guess I don’t care |
Waiter, I won’t waste your time anymore |
You’ve already started to sweep down the floor |
I guess she’s not coming, I’ll head for the door |
I’ll be taking my business elsewhere |
It wasn’t for me |
That spark in her eyes |
It wasn’t for me |
That halo in her hair |
When she touched me a lump rose up in my throat |
But she must act that way with any old soak |
And waiter, you don’t seem to share in the joke |
So I’ll be taking my business elsewhere |
She called me her fantasy |
Boldly she kissed me |
I’ll never get over |
The sheer surprise of her |
Acting that way |
And I’m healing okay |
But for the eyes of her |
It’s cold in the rain |
And it’s dark and it’s sad |
And I’ll miss her tonight |
On my lonely back stair |
I’m sorry I took up so much of your space |
I’ll move down the street to a friendlier place |
'Cos I guess she’s not coming and you’re sick of my face |
I’ll be taking my business elsewhere |
