All night long he's trying to do
What he used to do all night long
He's trying to be what he no longer is
The champagne is gone, all that's left is the fizz
He's trying to be a gay romancer
But he can no longer take yes for an answer
All night long he's trying to do
What he used to do all night long
How well I recall Christmas Eve we were wed
My husband hung jingle bells under the bed
Yes, we celebrated the holidays fine
We rang in the New Year just for Auld Lang Syne
Now all night long he's trying to do
What he used to do all night long
The other night I came across his little black book
It confirmed all my suspicions, nothing but recipes to cook
Lately he's tried everything the way a man should
He eats oysters with the shells on but it still does no good
And all night long he's trying to do
What he used to do all night long
He used to be a Navy man and he was so cute
Each night before going to bed he'd fire a twenty-one gun salute
Then went around bragging how he made such a score
But lately that poor fella ain't so cocky anymore
'Cause all night long he's trying to do
What he used to do all night long
Yes, I knew for certain our romance was dead
The night that he started bringing peanuts to bed
Soon we'll be divorced, it'll really be the end
And the worst of it is I can't even recommend him to a friend
'Cause all night long he's trying to do
What he used to do all night long
Back in the days when he was good and strong
