lyrics

I see here everyone is happy
They all love the ones they may marry
It's like a fairy-tale on the rocks
And I'm so drunk and sober
I hear love is talking dirty
It makes my thoughts go right out of here

They kiss and smile and kiss again
Like lovers are supposed to
And I don't know what to do, I just don't know

Maybe I should get out of here
and finish this last gallon of beer
Spread out my wings, shoot away my tear or maybe I

Should I sing a song alone for me?
Tell Cupid that I'm ready
Make the moon come down and fall for me
Force the stars to shine a light on me
Go write adds in lovers magazines
or steal the flag of Playboy City

Should I ride out, be a Romeo a day
or Robin Hood and steal Marianne away
Be a gigolo junky, get laid and paid
or a dealer-pimp and never have to wait
Go out flying without a parachute
and hit rock bottom, maybe I should

Nobody smiles to me no more
May had it coming, I don't know
Haven't done nothing, nothing at all
Haven't done nothing, nothing at all

I wish this day would go away
but only tomorrow can end this day
And tomorrow is so long away it’s too long away

My dreams are small & simple
I want love without a wrinkle
The perfect girl to quarrel with
The girl to laugh & sorrow with
The girl always to be alone with
The perfect girl to set up home with
The woman to bury me stiff
One day somewhere & I will stay right here, my dear
