Sittin' thinkin' sinkin' drinkin'
Wondering what I'd do when I'm through tonight
Smoking moping, maybe just hopin'
Some little girl will pass on by
Don't wanna be alone but I love my girl at home
I remember what she said
She said, "My, my, my don't tell lies!
keep fidelity in your head!
My, my, my, don't tell lies
When you've done your show go to bed.
Don't say hi, like a spider to a fly
Jump right ahead and you're dead!"
Sit up, fed up, low down go round
Down to the bar at the place I'm at
Sitting, drinking, superficially thinking
About the rinsed-out blonde on my left
Then I said, "hi" like a spider to a fly
Remembering what my little girl said
She was common, flirty, she looked about thirty
I would have run away but I was on my own
She told me later she's a machine operator
She said she liked the way I held the microphone
And I said my, my, my like the spider to the fly
Jump right ahead in my web
Well I'm waiting at the bus stop in downtown L.А.
Well I'm waiting at the bus stop in downtown L.А.
But I'd much rather be on a boardwalk on Broadway
Well I'm sitting here thinkin' just how sharp I am
Well I'm sitting here thinkin' just how sharp I am
I'm an under assistant West Coast promo man
Well I promo groups when they come into town
Well I promo groups when they come into town
Well they laugh at my toupee, they're sure to put me down
Well I'm sitting here thinkin' just how sharp I am
Well I'm sitting here thinkin' just how sharp I am
I'm a necessary talent behind every rock and roll band
Yeah, I'm sharp
I'm really, really sharp
I sure do earn my pay
Sitting on the beach every day, yeah
I'm real real sharp, yes I am
I got a Corvette and a seersucker suit
Yes I have
Here comes the bus, uh oh
I though I had a dime
Where's my dime
I know I have a dime somewhere
I'm pretty sure...
