Too bad that you had to get caught,
That's not like you to lose face.
So sad that you're not as smart,
As you thought you were in the first place.

Baby, I could use some of your persuasion,
(Too bad, persuasion, too bad, persuasion)
To wipe away (wipe, wipe, a-wipe, a-wipe a-wipe away)
the taste of your machinations.
(Too bad, machinations, too bad, machinations)

It's over,
Kaput except for the tail spin.
(Too bad, for the tail spin, too bad, for the tail spin)
Save the dialogue (baby set your dialouge)
for the old men in the pool room.
(Too bad, such a cool room, in the pool room, such a cool room)

Try it once, well I'm not so sure,
Try it twice and you're by my door.

Too bad that you had to get caught,
That's not like you to lose face.
So sad that you're not as smart,
As you thought you were in the first place.

The money, no more than insulation.
(Too bad, insulation, too bad, insulation)
The getaway, (get get a-get a-get a-get away)
I watched with fascination.
(Too bad, fascination,too bad, fascination)
The hideway, Woooo! such imagination.
(Too bad, 'magination, too bad, 'magination)
Ah, the 45! Goodbye!
I used it with no hesitation
(Too bad, hesitation, too bad, hesitation)

Too bad that you had to get caught,
That's not like you to lose face.
So sad that you're not as smart,
As you thought you were in the first place.
