The case was pulled from under the bed She made a call to a sympathetic friend And made arrangements The door was closed there was a note I couldn't be bothered Maybe I'll choke No more engagements
With where have you been's And faraway frowns Trying to be good By not being 'round And here in the bar The piano man's found Another nail for my heart
That stupid old bug That kills only love I want to be good Is that not enough
So play me the song That makes it so tough Another nail for my heart Then play me that song That makes it so tough Another nail for my heart
I had excuses those little boy lies That she computed by watching my eyes And told me firmly
She couldn't stand it I'm bad on her heart She dropped her makeup and I found the bar Now it concerns me
I've had a bad time Now love is resigned I've been such a fool I've loved and goodbyed
So here in the bar The piano man's found Another nail for my heart And here in the bar The piano man's found Another nail for my heart
