More Lyrics that Stick
From the ride back from the Shore Sunday night:
Making believe
That you still love me
It's leaving me
Alone and so blue.
I'll always dream, but I'll never own you.
Making believe
Is all I can do.
* * *
Well, you ask me if I'll forget my baby
I guess I will, some day.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.
CHORUS:
God gave me that girl to lean on,
Then he put me on my own.
Heaven help me be a man
And have the strength to stand alone.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.
* * *
The judge said, son, what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die.
I spoke not a word, though it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife.
* * *
There's no stoppin' the cretins from hoppin'
You gotta keep it beatin'
For all the hoppin' cretins.
Cretin! Cretin!
* * *
Now I guess I'll have to tell 'em
That I got no cerebellum.
* * *
Siting here in Queens
Eating refried beans
We're in all the magazines
Gulpin' down thorazines.
Making believe
That you still love me
It's leaving me
Alone and so blue.
I'll always dream, but I'll never own you.
Making believe
Is all I can do.
* * *
Well, you ask me if I'll forget my baby
I guess I will, some day.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.
CHORUS:
God gave me that girl to lean on,
Then he put me on my own.
Heaven help me be a man
And have the strength to stand alone.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

There's no stoppin' the cretins from hoppin'

For all the hoppin' cretins.
Cretin! Cretin!
