from the songs album Deceptive Bends
Well i've been lookin' after number one for too long
And it seemed the love was passing me by
So i thought i better do something about it
And that's why i'm sittin' here lookin' cross the table at you
That's why i'm sittin' here lookin' cross the table at you
Well a lonely man needs a marriage bureau
Where they sit you right down and you fill in a form
Would you like a blonde or a black or a blue rinse
Do you like `em small, love `em slim long and tall
Do you like `em small, love `em slim long and tall
Oh no, too many questions
I'm looking for a girl like momma used to be
She's cooking up a dream, she's baking ecstasy
Won't it be fine when
I find her
Would i like to take her to a movie or the theatre
Would i pick her up at home or would i like to meet her
Somewhere we could take a good look at each other
Smile and say hello or walk away
Smile and say hello or walk away
So i'm squeaky clean in and out of the bath
I never shaved so close before
I'm gonna put on a tie, i'm gonna shine up my shoes
I'm gonna slick back my hair, i've got nothin' to lose
Oh, oh, i'll be stinkin' so good
Like i'm drowning in a sea of cologne
Hey... do you know you remind me of someone
But i'm here making eyes at you
And i think we're gonna say goodbye to the bureau
Close the files, turn the page, start anew
Close the files, turn the page, start anew
