My Friend John |
Well the room was pink and the signs were serious |
Paperback dolls being slammed delirious |
Feeling like a joke in the bar underneath |
And it was Saturday night in the year of the good thief |
Well I tumbled up the stairs the wrong way 'round |
I hit my head on the ceiling when my feet hit the ground |
And then the big dumb blonde in the gold fish bowl |
Cried Ella’s in the band but she’s got no soul! |
My friend John was a serious one |
Buttoned up the back and a job half done |
Lazy old boy when the good girls turn |
His teeth get itchy and his rubber soles burn |
When will he ever learn? |
Well the night was spent and my money was young |
And then I had to get home before my neck was wrung |
And everybody danced in the same old way |
And if I’m feeling old and desperate I’ll be back some day |
My friend John was a serious one |
Buttoned up the back and a job half done |
Lazy old boy when the good girls turn |
His teeth get itchy and his rubber soles burn |
When will he ever learn? |
