Hey Mrs. Marco, sitting in the sand
Willfully oblivious, working on your tan
Anchors and saviors and lanky quiet types
Will only see you so far through the night
They will only see you so far through the night
Hey Mrs. Thompson, to the lonely heart's club féte
Across the auditorium a stoic face does wait
He won't shed a tear when you shatter all his dreams
But nothing is as simple as it seems
No, nothing is as simple as it seems
Take me to the fire,
Take me to the burn,
Hang me from your wire,
Let me have my turn
Hey Mrs. Watkins, do tell about your man
That twinkle in his eyes and your baggage in his hand
That man will love you straight into his grave
But you will count the things he never gave
Yes, you will count the things he never gave
Never gave
