Pretty  women out  walking with gorillas  down my street.
>From  my window  I'm staring  while my coffee  grows cold.
Look  over there!  (Where?)
There's  a lady  that I used  to know.
She's  married now,  or engaged,  or something,  so I am told.
Is  she really going out  with him?
Is  she really gonna take  him home  tonight?
Is  she really going out  with him?
 'Cause if my eyes  don't deceive me,
 There's something  going wrong around here.
 Tonight's the night when I go to all the parties down my street.
 I wash my hair and I kid myself I look real smooth.
 Look over there! (Where?)
 Here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend.
 They say that looks don't count for much.
 If so, there goes your proof.
 (refrain)
But  if looks could kill,  there's a man  there who's more  down as dead.
 'Cause I've had my fill,  "Listen you,  take your hands  off her head!"
 I get so mean  around this scene!  Hey,  hey, hey.
 
 (refrain)
 
 and out
