lyrics

This happened last time
I went out on a thursday
It was a bright british morning
in a fake british cafe

Two women were talking
in hushed hurried voices
Over what sort of menu
they should make with their choices

Well then one of the ladies
who had inferior vision
Began shouting quite loudly
about her dog that was missing

But nobody answered
and nobody noticed
She was a pretty good dancer
but nobody would know this

She went out to the party
of her beleagured acquaintance
She was smelling quite badly
of some unspeakable fragrance

While she throttled the whiskey
her brain entirely mangled
She recognized a jazz man
whom she had briefly entangled

She remembered the last time
the two of them were together
How they were getting quite rowdy
all dressed in thick spanish leather

And now the two of them stood there
exchanging quick furtive glances
But at the time neither one of them
would ever take any chances

Twenty minutes away now
in the immediate future
'round the corner or something
she must have thought it would suit her

To lie down in the ashtray
of some despicable person
There was much more than one way
her situation could worsen

But she'll carry on gladly
not hoping it'll get better
She'll probably wander quite blindly
not caring where it'll get her

And nobody answered
and nobody noticed
She was a pretty good dancer
but nobody would know this

And if I see her again
I hope she's doing much better than the last time...oh no!
And if I see her again
I hope she's doing much better than the owner of a lonely heart
