She claimed the cafe where I first met her
A cold-blooded, break-up technique
Made sure there was no public drama
While her crocodile mascara ran down her Ann Margret cheek
. . .her perfect Ann Margret cheek
Ten times a day I re-read her letter
I’m just a shell of a man
Been drinking beer in my pajamas
Eating Dinty Moore Beef Stew straight outta the can
What’s it gonna take to stop the swelling
This fractured heart sure hurts like a bitch
I Keep trying to crawl out of this love I fell in
Drag myself out of this misery ditch
I left some things in her apartment
She stopped returning my calls
Next time I shack up with a model
I’ll know the higher the stiletto the harder the fall
I doubt I’ll ever forget the scent of her hair
It's like a memory tattoo
Dropped off her keys and took a bottle
Of her Faberge Organics Wheat Germ and Honey Shampoo
