Well I heard you thinking early morning as you rub your eyes
your pretty poker face as its staring down at my roulette mind
and blinds from blankets that you'll never miss
I can't stop the punch that old sun hit you with
You said "hey, boy are you just in love with the idea of me?"
You read my horoscope as I'm stuck here lost in a history
And Debora Kerr's playing Ida Carmody
And everything's sitting where its supposed to be
Take me out, and get me well well shickered
for all the promises I never delivered
Take me out, take me out tonight

I don't dare suck my fingers I know that aint gonna pass your test
You keep me in a cigarette case in a second hand flower print cocktail dress
And as your cat scratching at your toes
You wonder just how much he knows
and maybe if we're still batting on the same side

Take me out, and get me real real shickered
for all the promises I never delivered
Take me out, take me out tonight

Well I heard you thinking early morning as you rub your eyes
your pretty poker face as its staring down at my roulette mind
Now the city's calling out our name
Happy anniversary baby

Take me out, and get me real real shickered
for all the promises I never delivered
Take me out, take me out tonight

Oh so take me out get me real real cut
For all the things you remember, all the things I forgot
Take me out, take me out tonight
