big mistake

from boat with no oars by mary bue

lyrics

no, i'm not gonna have your baby
what a big mistake that'd be
no, we're not going to get married
what a big mistake that'd be

let's just meet in darkened barrooms
and smoke and drink
and listen to the saxophone
let's meet up on the corner off broadway
and drive up to boston
scratch one off our list of sins for the day
our to-do list of sins for the day

there's gluttony and there's deception
and adultery in this lustful equation
and you add it all up
and what a full day we've had
indulging this
baby, i feel so bad

so let's just meet in darkened barrooms
and smoke and drink and listen to the saxophone
let's pretend that none of this ever happened
and agree to never see each other again
pretend that we've never met
