One man, he'd disappoint me
He'd give me the gouge and take my glee
Now every other man I see
Reminds me of the one man who disappointed me


Wait 'til I get him back
He won't have a back to scratch
Yeah, keep turnin' that chin
And you will see my face as I figure how to kill what I cannot catch


So I say 'and on I go'
To another one who disappoints me so


The next one up: a contemptible snob
He lived to put things in their place
He did a commendable job
He put himself so low he can hardly even look me in the face


Wait 'til I get him back
He won't have a back to scratch
Yeah, keep turnin' that chin
And you will see my face as I figure how to kill what I cannot catch


Oh, he made my blood just burn
I flipped so far I thought that I would not retun


But the last one I had was getting my hopes up
I might have been a little fast to dismiss
I think he let me down when he didn't disappoint me
He didn't always guess right but he usually got my gist


Wait 'til I get him back
I'm gonna bring him home and I'll watch him unpack
Keep turnin' that chin
And you will see my face is fixed on the one I'm gonna get back


Gonna get him back
I am
I'm gonna get him back
I really am
I'm gonna get him back
I'm gonna get him back
I'm gonna get him back
