So Alone

She calls on the phone
She says she doesn't wanna be alone
She says it's making her neurotic
But please don't mistake it for being erotic

So alone
So all alone

She says, "Let's go for a walk"
We'll have a drink and maybe we will talk
And he thinks she has possibilities
If she could just put away her rosary

So all alone
Nobody wants to be alone

But I just didn't know
I swear to you, I just didn't know
I would never make you sad
If I had known, I never would have said those things to you
You have to be crazy to say those things to you

Let's face it, I made a mistake
Well, you know, fools rush in where angels take a break
I can't be smart all of the time
And anyway, I didn't know you marking time over him
To tell you the truth, I forget all about him

And you know, I don't think it's nice
Asking one man about another man's vice
I don't care if you pick my head, as long as we end up in bed
Alone, just the two of us alone

I just didn't know
I swear to God, I just didn't know
Can't you understand that it's frightening
When you hear women talking about castrating and hating men?
Who wants to know about how you hate men

Well, you said now you wanted to dance
So now we're gonna dance
You said that you weren't complete
But we're going to put you on your feet

You said that you were very vexed
And you told me to forget about sex
You said you liked me for my mind
Well, I really love your behind

Oh, get up and boogie
Oh baby, get up and dance
Oh, get, get, get, get up and boogie, baby
Oh, get up and dance
Shake your booty, mama
Oh, get up and dance

Your point's very clear
You're not one to cry into your beer
Why don't we go to my place?
Believe me, I'm very chaste

And I'm so alone
So all alone

Sure, all men are beasts
Hey, look, I'll sit here quietly, and I'll stare at my feet
I don't blame you for taking umbrage
With animals staring at your cleavage

So alone
We're so all alone

Hey, do you mind if I turn out the light?
Don't take offense, but why don't you spend the night?
I know your passions run very deep
But at this point we both need sleep

So alone
And who wants to be alone?
