Standing at the
door of the Pink Flamingo,
crying in the rain
It was a kind of so -so love,
and I'm gonna make sure
it never happens again
You and I, it had to be
the standing joke of the year
You were a sleeper and
a lost and found
and not for me, I fear
I tried to make it work,
you in a cocktail skirt,
and me in a suit,
well it just wasn't me
You're used to wearing less,
and now your life's a mess,
so insecure you see
I put up with all the scenes
and this is one scene
that's gonna be played my way
Take your hands off me
I don't belong to you,
you see
Come on and take a look at my face
for the last time
I never knew you, you never knew me,
say hello, goodbye
Say hello, wave goodbye
Under the deep red light,
I can see the make -up
sliding down.
Hey little girl, you will always make -up,
so take off that undercoming frown.
What about me?
I'll find someone
who's not going cheap
in the sales.
A nice little housewife
who'll give me a steady life
And won't keep going off the rails
Take your hands off me
I don't belong to you,
you see
Come on and take a look at my face
for the last time
I never knew you, you never knew me
Say hello, goodbye
Say hello, wave goodbye
You know, we've been involved
for quite a while now
And to keep you secret,
it has been hell
We're strangers meeting
for the first time, okay?
Just smile and say hello
Say hello, then wave goodbye
Say hello, then wave goodbye
Say hello, then wave goodbye
Oh, yeah
