My reservation was for 9 |
|
All heads look down |
|
There was no clock around |
|
I tried but couldn't make it on time |
|
Couldn't find a lie |
|
Watches stopped, broken clocks |
|
My, my hands are tied |
|
And I can't hold the lie |
|
And I know I can never eat here again |
|
Hey, Peter Luger, let me in |
|
It's all my fault |
|
Father Time - I have sinned |
|
I missed my plate of splatterfat ribs |
|
No one forgives |
|
Traffic costs dirty bibs |
|
My, my hands were tied |
|
And I had crossed the line |
|
And I know I can never eat here again |
|
(I don't know what to do, nobody care 'bout no fair share |
|
Yeah, I'm comin' up on a meat beat down |
|
Service with a frown - 'cause I was late I get a cold plate |
|
You punish me - that's not how it was supposed to be) |
|
(I screw you and I screw me too - it's not what I meant to do |
|
But my actions didn't live up to my intentions or my expectations |
|
The reservation was for 4 but they just wanna show me the door |
|
And get me outta there) |
|
My, my hands are tied |
|
And I can't hold the lie |
|
And I know I can never eat here again |
|
And I'll starve t'ill I die |
|
(I should have went to Vegas diner 'round the corner |
|
Where the price is good, the food is worse, and it's in Bensonhurst) |
|
My, my hands were tied |
|
(You murdered my night - the food was not right |
|
The bill was bigger than my wallet, and bigger than my appetite) |
|
And I had crossed the line |
|
(Another time another night I could have been better satisfied |
|
I tried, it's gonna be the last time) |
|
And I know I can never eat here again |
