I Used To Visit All The Very Gay Places
Those Come-what-may Places Where One Relaxes On The Axis
Of The Wheel Of Life To Get The Feel
Of Life From Jazz And Cocktails The Girls
I Knew Had Sad And Sullen Gray Faces With
Distingue Traces That Used To Be There You Could
See Where They'd Been Washed Away By Too Many
Through The Day, Twelve O'clock Tales Then You
Came Along With Your Siren Song To Tempt Me
To Madness I Thought For Awhile That Your Poignant
Smile Was Tinged With The Sadness Of A Great
Love For Me Ah Yes, I Was Wrong Again,
I Was Wrong Life Is Lonely Again And
Only Last Year Everything Seemed So Sure Now Life
Is Awful Again A Trough Full Of Hearts Could
Only Be A Bore A Week In Paris
Could Ease The Bite Of It All I Care
Is To Smile In Spite Of It I'll
Forget You, I Will While Yet You Are Still
Burning Inside My Brain Romance Is Mush Stifling Those
Who Strive So I'll Live A Lush Life
In Some Small Dive And There I'll Be While
I Rot With The Rest Of Those Whose Lives
Are Lonely Too
