It started on a Tuesday afternoon

Josie was one of those easy girls who had wide eyes

And she was drawn in by the incense at the Mission Room Bar

You know, once she got in the boys attacked her like a movie star

And as soon as she got nervous she was drinkin’ and smokin’

Like a lover caught chokin’ on another man’s bone

But clicking her heels wouldn’t get her home

She called me laughin’ from a pay phone



ON THIS TUESDAY AFTERNOON

JOSIE GOT CAUGHT IN THE MISSION ROOM

WHERE THE MEN ARE CRAZY AND THE WOMEN ARE,TOO

BEFORE YOU KNOW IT’S WEDNESDAY IN THE AFTERNOON

IN THE AFTERNOON



Just before 2:15 in the morning

Josie was doin’ the Hustle with a ruffneck named James

And they were bumpin’ and grindin’ and grindin’ and bumpin’

You know once you get there it’s hard to stop the bass from pumpin’

And as soon as she was willing, Jimmy’s jeep was rollin’

And her lips were swollen from the fat shit she was tokin’

By 4 o’clock his waterbed was broken

She called me nervous from his cell phone



CHORUS



It ended on a Wednesday afternoon

Josie arrived at my apartment with mascara running down her cheeks

She was crying like a baby, saying, ‘What a mistake!’

I had to sit on my hands to keep them from slapping her face

‘Cause as soon as I asked her if she used protection

I saw Josie’s complexion turn a shade of gray

Now what am I supposed to say?

Just don’t party on a weekday



CHORUS
