Suddenly a woman leaves me - I've got no job - a machine relieved me Suddenly I've lost my piece of pie I'm now in mourning and I wear all blue That's the color you wear when the dead one's you Suddenly I am living in a lie My woman's off with some other guy I can remember the first time I saw her. She was hanging out in one of those singles bars. Wearing a really fancy dress Drinking a really expensive mixed drink smoking one of those Marlboro 100's with the big fancy plastic filters on the end Made her look like she had cla**, least I thought so. But then suddenly the b**h left me All of a sudden like something suddenly Suddenly I'm on my own I don't hear no rings on the telephone And all the rings I've given her have been returned I cling to clothes she used to wear Then I try them on and style my hair Suddenly I could never be as fine as she I've got her eyes But I sure don't have her teeth I can remember when we would take walks around the public pool and the way she would look at me - and the way she would do this whistle and how I would feel - I'm gonna try and show you what it was like Suddenly I found myself drinking from the lowest shelf And all of a sudden I just could not believe my eyes There goes some guy walking down the street wearing my tie Suddenly I'm not gonna let another man take my woman. Not even d**h can do us part. Because when I'm an angel I'm gonna come down from heaven and I'm gonna buy her a brand new Cadillac I'm gonna buy her a brand new Cadillac Let me tell you why, let me tell everybody why Because in the 50's it was pompadours And in the 60's it was peace In the 70's bellbottoms, I don't know why In the 80's Ronald Reagan, BMW's Sushi, back home we used that for fertilizer, but in the 90's LOVE Love is the new fad, I love you, good God almighty I love you Ya Suddenly I have found myself alive
