Lyrics
His lady is a pocket watch
Spends his time staring at her face
Waiting for the day to change
But all this time he has misplaced
Oh, won't you take me out?
A better man would've helped you out
Say, won't you tell me now
Where's this grand life you been preachin' 'bout
Where's this grand life you been preachin' 'bout
His doctor's good but he don't help him out
Ignoring the words falling out his mouth
Pretty face waving in the mirror
Pick up bad habits and she'll disappear
Oh, won't you take me out?
A better man would've helped you out
Say, won't you tell me now
Where's this grand life you been preachin' 'bout
Where's this grand life you been preachin' 'bout
Life flashes by like a subway train
He can catch it with a leap of faith
He sure is a man but he's not too brave
He'll cry about it in the grave
Oh, won't you take me out?
A better man would've helped you out
Say, won't you tell me now
Where's this grand life you been preachin' 'bout
Where's this grand life you been preachin' 'bout
Where's this grand life you been preachin' 'bout
Where's this grand life you been preachin' 'bout
