Well let me tell you I have seen
a monster age of seventeen
Who'll let you in to kick you out
and knows what love is "all about"

Hey now girl
I see you walking by
And long ago you used to stop and talk
now you just wink your eye
and I'm surprised you look all grown up
A champagne glass next to a paper cup
I stopped you just to say it
Hey now girl

Her tongue is black haven't you heard
her mutter those three dirty words
For all those foolish boys to hear
like a siren bringing ships so near

Hey now girl I see you walking by
And I remember how you used to smile
or how hard you used to try
It's in your eyes and I'm in a trance
A winter chill next to a spring romance
I stopped you just to say it
Hey now girl
