Wendy Van Wanten - i never talk to strangers lyrics

rate me

Bartender, I'd like a Manhattan please

Stop me if you've heard this one

But I feel as though we've met before

Perhaps I am mistaken

But it's just that I remind you of

Someone you used to care about

Oh, but that was long ago

Now tell me, do you really think I'd fall for that old line

I was not born just yesterday

Besides I never talk to strangers anyway

Hell, I ain't a bad guy when you get to know me

I just thought there ain't no harm

Hey, yeah, just try minding your own business, bud

Who asked you to annoy me

With your sad, sad repartee

Besides I never talk to strangers anyway

Your life's a dimestore novel

This town is full of guys like you

And you're looking for someone to take the place of her

You must be reading my mail

And you're bitter cause he left you

That's why you're drinkin' in this bar

Well, only suckers fall in love with perfect strangers

It always takes one to know one stranger

Maybe we're just wiser now

Yeah, and been around that block so many times

That we don't notice

That we're all just perfect strangers

As long as we ignore

That we all begin as strangers

Just before we find

We really aren't strangers anymore

Aw, you don't look like such a chump

Aw, hey baby
