Romanovsky And Phillips - Closet Case lyrics

Working in a suit and tie On the twenty-second floor A wife who cooks and stays at home And children to support And they provide some comfort From your worries and your cares But you get your kicks in tearooms From ten-minute love affairs And that's just fine You won't find a lecture here But you get more unhappy With each pa**ing year At the office Christmas party Your wife is by your side But with all the pretty women It's the men who catch your eye The old ones are distinguished And the young ones are so sweet And you would like to dance with them But you have to be discreet Holding onto ideal That you don't understand Sacrificing all the love You'd like to give to a man Martinis on a Friday Business lunch at noon The secretary's curious Why you left your desk so soon Rushing out to meet someone That you never thought would call 'Cause you were slightly older And he was dark and tall Now he is there beside you But there's no place to go 'Cause he has got a roommate And you've got a family at home Closet case
