| You gave me a pet name | |
| Which is not to say I like it | |
| We met at a party | |
| Not to say I was invited | |
| You said love was just a lie | |
| But I could tell that you were lying | |
| And we almost figured out how we'd get along | |
| And given time we'd find it strange to be alone and | |
| You work in a hotel | |
| At the magazine concession | |
| Back in just five minutes | |
| Reads the sign above your station | |
| Slip your profits in a bag | |
| And you're looking up to the hour hand | |
| And we almost figured out how we'll get along | |
| And given time we'll find it strange to be alone and | |
| You just forgot your one pet name for me | |
| And all those promises you said you'd keep | |
| And it's a lucky thing | |
| Because that sentimental stuff | |
| Doesn't suit you | |
| At all | |
| Waiting at the bus stop | |
| For just about an hour | |
| Strategies for hangman | |
| Cat's cradle, origami | |
| You say I'm OK for a guy | |
| But I can tell that you are lying | |
| And we've almost figured out how we'll get along | |
| And given time we'll find it strange to be alone and | |
| You just forgot your one pet name for me | |
| And all those promises you said you'd keep | |
| And it's a lucky thing | |
| Because that sentimental stuff | |
| Doesn't | |
| You just forgot your one pet name for me | |
| And all those promises you said you'd keep | |
| And it's a lucky thing | |
| Because that sentimental stuff | |
| Doesn't suit you | |
| At all |
