Fourth floor room |
|
Each girl I've brought back home to bloom |
|
All fold on close inspection |
|
Each one leaves |
|
A banner hanging from the eaves |
|
Marking the eve of election |
|
Ex-girl collection, why? |
|
Into why not |
|
Into what else you got |
|
It's just how men mark time |
|
Ann slams in |
|
Another lightning round begins |
|
This could get interesting |
|
Where's ann been? |
|
She pours herself a don't-ask gin |
|
No ice and light on the bitters |
|
I'm done with quitters, why |
|
Charles, I found out |
|
Wipe that smile off your mouth |
|
I think it's tell-me time |
|
Britt hit hard |
|
She found my box of Beth's best cards |
|
Hand cut and signed with 'X's |
|
Called at work |
|
'Happy anniversary, jerk' |
|
And I just laughed at the timing |
|
With you on hold line 2 still crying 'why?' |
|
Play sex on the cuff? |
|
Does beth like it rough? |
|
And learn your dirty lines? |
|
And keep her hair cropped |
|
The other shoe dropped |
|
'Is this how men mark time |
|
in couples?', she cursed |
|
This sounds too rehearsed |
|
As Ann, hand on hip |
|
Accusing me to the rafters |
|
Words turn and spit |
|
And scorch right through to the plaster |
|
I'm called ten kinds of a bastard |
|
Curses came faster |
|
Ann stands down |
|
I think she thinks there's still some gal |
|
Who's up but Ann's so smug |
|
You couldn't even guess Beth's gone |
|
She so (...) |
|
Why? into why not? |
|
Into Charles gone to pot |
|
In hotter water |
|
Line up to lift up a toast |
|
To the ones I hurt most |
|
And how the well's gone lime |
|
With Charles on the plow |
|
I'm roger over and how |
|
Slower now men mark time |
|
Fine |
|
Why, what else you got? |
