Been a Long Day

Well, here it is five PM
The finish of a long day's work
And there they are, both of them
The secretary and the clerk

Not very well acquainted
Not very much to say
But I can hear those two little minds
Tickin' away

Now she's thinking
(I wonder if we take the same bus)
And he's thinking
(There could be quite a thing between us)
Now she's thinking
(He really is a dear)
And he's thinking
(But what of my career)
And she says (oh)
And he says (well, it's been a long day)

Well, it's been a long
Been a long
Been a long, been a long day

Now she's thinking
(I wish that he were more of a flirt)
And he's thinking
(I guess a little flirting won't hurt)
Now she's thinking
(For dinner we could meet)
He's thinking
(We both have gotta eat)
And she says (achoo)
And he says (ah, gesundheit)
(Thank you)

Well, it's been a long day
Well, it's been a long
Been a long
Been a long
Been a long day

Hey, there's a yummy Friday special at Stouffer's
It's a dollar ninety vegetable plate
And on the bottom of the ad
Not bad
Service for two
Three fifty-eight
To make a bargain
Make a date

Wonderful
It's fate

Now she's thinking
(What female kind of trap could I spring?)
And he's thinking
(I might as well forget the whole thing)
Now she's thinking
(Suppose I take his arm)
He's thinking
(Well, really, what's the harm?)
She says (hungry?)
And he says
(Yeah)

Yeah, yeah
Well, it's been a long day
Well, it's been a long
Been a long
Been a long
Been a long day

Well, it's been a long
Been a long
Been a long
Been a long day
