It doesn't matter what I say It doesn't matter what I do It seems I'm going to have to change my look for you cos I've got two shoes but they've been walked too far And I thing that we could float from evening to the stars
When I see you in the distance with your friends I look around and then I look down at my threads It's inappropriate that I should present like a Retired Matador with unpaid rent
So many nights I'm still thinking about you And so many nights you step in and I walk through So he doesn't care except he still combs his hair So what am I supposed to do?
I bought a suit and I bought a top hat And I put a red stripe down the side of my slacks Went to the barber got my hair cut high And I bought a ticket for the opera tonight
But when I see you your bodice and your pride It's nice to greet you with an interrupted stride, besides you say 'Good Evening' you don't say 'Goodnight' And I can't deny that
So many nights I'm still thinking about you And so many nights until I change my suit And when I'm bare don't need to comb my hair 'Cause I found what to do
Put your waistcoat on, Put your waistcoat on
So many nights I'm still thinking about you And so many nights you step in and I walk through So he doesn't care except he still combs his hair So what am I supposed to do?
So many nights I'm still thinking about you And so many nights until I change my suit And when I'm bare don't need to comb my hair 'Cause I found what to do
Put your waistcoat on, Put your waistcoat on Put your waistcoat on, Put your waistcoat on
