You need something to eat
So let me buy it for you
There's a place down the street
I'll break my diet for you
Let's try another place
This one's looking way too empty
It's too dark to see your face
So that I can let it tempt me
Don't like the looks of that joint
So let's just keep on driving
I hope we get to the point
When we say we're arriving
I dont think I'm a funny guy
And maybe that is why I'm funny
Some people really try
And that just makes them tragic honey
I'm telling things that really should stay unknown
Forgive me please, I usually eat alone
I usually eat alone
If the truth should be told
I'm not a person who courts
If I could be so bold
I mostly eat in my shorts
Before you came around
I thought I was the one in trouble
But now it seems I found
Something underneath the rubble
If the check's too high, I might ask you for a loan
Forgive me please, I usually eat alone
I usually eat alone
I talk about everything except what I want to talk about
Like when I first looked at you I knew there was not an ounce of doubt
I told myself, "There she is, that's the girl I'm in love with.
She is the only one I can be hand in glove with"
I should hold back, but now all my cards are shown
Forgive me please, I usually eat alone
I usually eat alone
I usually eat alone
