Jeff Shapiro got his law degree

he moved to Brooklin from disconectity 93

got some clients in the float industry

he says it's not the money it's the recipes

he calls his mom says he's doing fine

she's got somebody on the other line

puts Coldplay on, pours a glass of wine

comes up with a book about organized crime

when it's late, and it's hot

and a date with the Late Show

is all that you've got

don't give out

don't give up

one of this nights you might find

someone to love

someone to love

Beth Mackenzie got the job of her dreams

retouching photos for a magazine

it's thursday night she should be out on the scene

but she's sitting there home watching the king of queens

there's something wrong

that she can't describe

she takes her contacts out of her eyes

sets the alarm for 6:45

so she can get a little exercise

when it's late, and it's hot

and an hour in the shower

is the best that you've got

don't give out

don't give up

one of this nights you might find

someone to love

someone to love

and you're not the only one who's lonely

and you're not the only one who's lonely

Ahhhhhh

Jeff Shapiro is trying in vain

to hail a taxi in the morning in the pouring rain

beth mackenzing sees one just up ahead

she cuts in front of him and leaves him for dead
