Oh, what joy to be all alone I’m happy alone, don’t you see?
I’ve convinced you...
I don’t know, I get so dramatic about it, you’re better off alone man, I gotta–
That’s it I’m gonna get a whole bunch of new suits
You know I’ve had the same dumb suit for ten years
You walk into her closet, you can’t even breathe
That’s it I’ll get a whole bunch of suits, I’ll get a chick that likes to hang out
I’ll have the *** parties, that’s my... *** parties swing it up all of that
I'll get a chick who likes to drink
Boy my wife sure used to look good standing up against the sink
She’s the lowest though I really put her down
No, no, I really miss her I don’t want some sharp chick that can quote
Kerouac and walk with poise I just want to hear my old lady say,
"Get up and fix the sink, it’s still making noise”
All alone All alone
Like a nearsighted dog, where’s the bone? Aw but it’s better to be all alone.
No more taking out the garbage, hear her yacking on the phone
I gave her everything, even my mother’s ring
But to me she was so petty Sometimes I wish that she were dead
But it’d probably take her 2 hours to get ready
When she’s old...
Then she’s gonna be sorry That’s it!
Like she’s young and swinging now and she can get a lot of guys but when she’s old
I can see her about 20 years from now:
“How you doin’ Annie? I haven’t seen you in a long time, you look pretty good baby
You’re still washing your hair with Dutch cleanser I see
Yeah, you look good. you’ve gained a few pounds
What happened to your neck? I heard you got married a few times
Me no, I’ve always stayed single I’ve been investing in property
I’ve picked up a little place in Mexico, maybe you’ve heard of it, it's called Acapulco
Where are you living, a furnished room? That’s nice, you cook on the radiator, the paper drapes
sit in the lobby and watch television and all, you know
That’s cool, yeah. Yeah, that’s cool
You have the diner’s club you sign, you go first class in those joints, I know it”
Yeah that’s it Her future spells a murky gloom
I’ll be rich and famous and she’ll be living in a furnished room
But it’s gonna be too late I wouldn’t hear her moan
I’ll be living in my Nardville mansion rich
...and all alone
All alone All alone
I’ll be rich but so all alone
