They had a courtyard pool at the hotel Delight
I decided to sun myself
there was no-one in sight
just a small patch of sunlight left out there
that's where I placed my chair
Then a woman came out
and she placed her chair right smack in front of me
so close I coulda touched her hair
she had her back to me
I thought, "Man, This is weird, she pretending I'm not
here."
Then she lit up a cigarette and the secondary smoke
poured over her shoulders
and right down my throat
But she didn't notice, she didn't even care
she had stolen my sunshine and cut of my air!
What kind of person would do you like that?
What kind of person would do you like that?
What kind of person would do you like that?
It's a mean old world when you have to live with
incompetence and indifference
like a bad cup of coffee that's filled to the brim with
incompetence and indifference, Yeah!
Smile for me one time
Smile when you really wanna cry
try for me one time, even though I know it's a lie
The electrician came by to fix my wires
and told me straight away I'd be charged by the hour
and spent the whole day just pokin around, lookin for
the ground
When he did start in, he rewired this and did that, and
probably took a nap
because a week went by before he said "it's fixed" and
he left with my check
now the microwave turns on the big screen tv which cuts
off the bathroom light, intermittently, and I'd love to
take a shower - I'm afraid to try - I'm afraid I'll -
