lyrics

Tuesday Parties

They invited him to their Tuesday party
These people he didn‘t really know
And when he arrived there he saw
Andy and Dora
Andy and Dora and six bottles of red
A couple playing Trivial
And Olivia
just leaving, Olivia...

„I thought you were having a party“ he said
„Yeah we are, it‘s our Tuesday party“ Andy said
five bottles of red
„and why did that Olivia leave?“
- „Well you know, she‘s just naive and young, you know
So she had to go“

„I am just as young“ he said
at which Dora laughed and threw back her head
Is it a snake or a dread?, he thought.
Four bottles of red
yeah, four bottles of red

Andy put some bad record on
And the other couple said that they had to move on
„take me with you!“ he called from the floor
but they were going where his house was not
or they heard him no more.
„ah, don‘t worry“ said Dora
„don‘t worry“ Andy said
Yeah, three bottles of red

He tried to rise but bumped into the edge of the bed
And Dora all over him, blond and overfed
And something was dripping from or next to his head
Two bottles of red
yeah, two bottles of red

„heart! You‘re my heart! I‘ll call you heart!“ she said
and heart, oh heart, oh how he wished he had fled
- „come on, Dora, get off the lad!“ Andy said
- „But heart, oh heart, I wanna take heart to bed!“
one bottle of red...

And she wouldn‘t let go till it was late dawn
And when she dozed off he crawled in between Andy‘s arms
„you‘re like a blackbird“ Andy whispered
„but you don‘t know how to fly just yet“
and he thought, what a pile of crap.
He slid back to his underpants and raincoat
And his head was in a boom
And he crawled out of the room
And he made his way home
Never again Tuesday parties.
