Caro Emerald – Liquid Lunch

Jazz, Funky & Swing

Baby, pass the aspirin — something’s gotta work
I know I did it to myself, but man oh man, it hurts
That second last Martini, the one that went down real smooth
Set me on a bender with nothing left to lose

I just can’t apologize for what I did to myself
My bed’s an ocean liner and I can’t call for help

Yeah, baby, it hurts a bunch
The girls got goin’ and we had a munch
I promise on a dime it’s the last time
I’ll ever have a liquid lunch
Yeah, baby, it hurts a bunch
The girls got goin’ and we had a munch
I promise on a dime it’s the last time
I’ll ever have a liquid lunch

I think I’ve got the symptoms and none of them will leave
They think that it’s a party to laugh at all my grief
It must have been a doozy — I had two hundred dreams
At least I found my pillow, ’cause I can’t find my keys

It’s hard to remember all of the events
But I must have paid the tab ’cause all that’s left is fifty cents

Yeah, baby, it hurts a bunch
The girls got goin’ and we had a munch
I promise on a dime it’s the last time
I’ll ever have a liquid lunch
Yeah, baby, it hurts a bunch
The girls got goin’ and we had a munch
I promise on a dime it’s the last time
I’ll ever have a liquid lunch

Maybe I can call the pharmacy
They’ll bring something up, something up tout suite
Some exotic medicine to cure my every ill
With some kind of magic pill

I just can’t apologize for what I did to myself
My bed’s an ocean liner and I can’t call for help

Yeah, baby, it hurts a bunch
The girls got goin’ and we had a munch
I promise on a dime it’s the last time
I’ll ever have a liquid lunch
Yeah, baby, it hurts a bunch
The girls got goin’ and we had a munch
I promise on a dime it’s the last time
I’ll ever have a liquid lunch
Yeah, baby, it hurts a bunch
The girls got goin’ and we had a munch
I promise on a dime it’s the last time
I’ll ever have a liquid lunch
Yeah, baby, it hurts a bunch
The girls got goin’ and we had a munch
I promise on a dime it’s the last time
I’ll ever have a liquid lunch
