Five names that I can hardly stand to hear,

Including yours and mine and one more chump who isn't here

I can see the ladies talking, how the times were getting hard

And that fearsome excavation on Magnolia Boulevard



Yes, I'm going insane

And I'm laughing at the frozen rain

And I'm so alone

Honey, when they gonna send me home?



Bad sneakers and a pia colada, my friend

Stomping on the avenue by Radio City with a

Transistor and a large sum of money to spend



You fella, you tear on up the street

You wear that white tuxedo, how you gonna beat the heat?

Do you take me for a fool, do you think that I don't see

That ditch out in the valley that they're digging just for me?



Yes, I'm going insane

And I'm laughing at the frozen rain

And I'm so alone

Honey, when they gonna send me home?



Bad sneakers and a pia colada, my friend

Stomping on the avenue by Radio City with a

Transistor and a large sum of money to spend
