Loudon Wainwright Excuse Me Lyrics

Excuse Me lyrics

Excuse Me
Loudon Wainwright III

I.At the station you can meet her
With that special smile you couldn’t cheat her
A woman that kind is hard to find
It’s good to take a girl
In the not so very good world
And walk in the park until it gets dark

Break:
Sometimes I feel ugly and old
Excuse me, baby, if I’m acting bold
My head gets hot but my feet aren’t cold
Excuse me, if you will

II.Take a breather on the bench
Helps to build the suspense
And the two of you go to a movie show
If she’s a woman there’s a chance
That maybe she likes to dance
So you go to the hall, and out step them all

Don’t make a hullaballoo, I’m not your hoi polloi
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/l/loudon-wainwright-lyrics/excuse-me-lyrics.html ]
I’ll use any trick and I’ll pull any ploy
I’m a used up 20th Century boy
Excuse me, if you will

III.She takes you home to meet the folks
Laughing at the father’s jokes
Shall we watch TV, it’s all right with me
Time to go you’re gonna miss her
At the doorway you try to kiss her
It tastes so good, like you hoped it would

If I were sixteen again I’d give my tooth
I’m tired and I’m hungry, and I’m ready for my youth
I’m a little uncool and I’m a little uncouth
Excuse me, if you will

IV.At the station you can meet her
With that special smile you couldn’t cheat her
A woman that kind, is hard to find
