"New Paint" lyrics
"New Paint"
(originally by Loudon Wainwright III)
One, two
At the station, you can meet her
With that smile, you couldn't cheat her
Woman so kind
Is hard to find
It's good to take a girl
In the not-so-very-good world
For a walk in the park
Until it gets dark
Well, sometimes, I feel ugly and old
Excuse me if I'm acting too bold
My head gets hot, but my feet are not cold
Excuse me if you will
Take a breather on the bench
Helps to build up the suspense
The two of you go
To a movie show
If she's a woman, there's a chance
That she maybe likes to dance
So you go to the hall
And you outstep 'em all
Ain't no hullabaloo, I ain't no hoi polloi
Try any trick, I'll pull any ploy
I'm a used-up twenty-first century boy
Oh, excuse me if you will
She takes you home to meet the folks
Laughing at the father's jokes
Shall we watch TV?
Yeah, it's all right with me
You're gonna leave, you're gonna miss her
In the doorway, try to kiss her
Aw, it tastes so good
Just like you knew it would
Oh, to be sixteen again, I'd give my eyetooth
I'm a little uncool, I'm a little uncouth
I'm tired and I'm hungry and I'm looking for my youth
Oh, excuse me if you will
At the station, you can meet her
With that smile, you couldn't cheat her
A woman so kind
Is hard to find

When you are here, I am at ease

To whom it may concern

I had to be...
