Waited up too many nights in a row Watching Brando on the late, late show Just to see you come a strollin' in Smelling of cigarettes, bourbon and gin And I only want to know one thing All I want to know is tell me who what where and why? 'Cos like the mirror shattered on this floor You broke me into a thousand pieces maybe more Hard to see the future hard to make these plans 'Cos when I look down I see the picture of a shattered man And I only want to know one thing All I want to know is tell me who what where and why? Standing in the shadows last night? What do you see when you look in his eyes? Where does he take you when you turn out the light?
And why, why, why, why, why? Pack up my records pack up my clothes Gonna throw 'em in a box Take them down that road 'Cos you blew through me like a gust of that dust bowl wind It's time for this tango to come to an end And I only want to know one thing All I want to know is tell me who what where and why? What do you see in the shadows at night? Who what where and why? What do you see when you look in his eyes? Who what where and why? Where does he take you when you turn out those lights? Who what where and why? Baby why do you have to go run off and do it again tonight? Who what where and why?
