Sally says, take a look on the shelf
Sally says, that’s where I’ll find myself
One day, if I keep up this ridiculous pace
Josie rolls her eyes just a little
Checks herself in a compact mirror
Says, how could I improve upon this face?
Sally throws a blue down her neck
Picks up a red and says, ah, what the heck
Rubs her eyes, says, where’d you
get these, Josie babe?
And Billy Mac says
They never went out dressed like that in my day
They call Josephine the queen of France
They call Sally Sally ‘cause she can’t dance
Meanwhile Billy Mac's not been seen outside for days
Taxi tips them out on Broad Street
A quick one now before the hotel beat
Something large, cold and white please, Sally says
Then to the barman, don’t bother, son
I may be cheap but I’m not as much fun
as I look, now give me a drink and wipe that grin off your face
And Billy Mac says
They never went out dressed like that in my day
They never let them out looking like that in my day
Anywhere else but here, you’d think it was Friday
I bet Billy Mac’s got a glass to the wall,
Sally laughs as she falls into the hall
Looks around to find Josie, conspicuously missing
Out of mind and out of sight
She doesn’t need Josie or a man tonight
Blanket from the bedroom, bottle from the kitchen
Sun comes up over the rooftops
Shines in Sally’s eyes and it won’t stop
She shouts, hey Billy, put the kettle on, if you’re still listening
And Billy Mac says
They never went out dressed like that in my day
They never let them out looking like that in my day
Anywhere else but here, you’d think it was Friday
Anywhere else but here, you’d think it was Friday
Anywhere else but here…
