Sergeant Kay

from Streetside Surprise by Party of One

lyrics

You hired me
To roll your foot-long cigars
And to drive you 'round town
In a big shiny white car
But I tried on your shoes
And I drank all your booze
So you kicked me out in the alley
And you saw me
On the six o'clock news

You pretend it's alright
But can't you see I'm uptight

As I wandered outta the alley
In my alcoholic state
Throwin' empty bottles at the moon
But I could see it was gettin' late
Then I began to sob
Began to long for that deadend job
I could see
You were not such a sweetheart
But girl, you were such a heartthrob!

Sergeant Kay, it's all up to you
Don't you think I'm ready for you?
Am I ready for you?

Found a flat on the corner
Tried to drown myself in the tub
But then I got out into the world
I watched you couch-dance
At the club
Tried to work my way back to you
But you had found someone new
Who would work for minimum wage
Something I had refused to do

You pretend it's alright
But can't you see I'm uptight?

Wish we could take this
Back to where it began
But now you're the talk of the streets
And have a legion of fans

But let's pretend it's alright
Won't you withstand me tonight?
Oh yeah yeah yeah!
