Where were you
Vic chesnuttwhen some certain athens sacred monster was doing me in the charm
we could've been chatting heart to heart on that front porch with a view
where were you girl when I needed you
where were you two weeks ago, a week again after your promise
I was in your place of employment crying in my humus
somebody in there said "boy you're looking bad"
and I said "you know that is nothing new"
where were you girl when I needed you
were you in that second story well lighted place
up against it's occupant artist in his personal space
I know that has been known to happen but I though all of that was through
where were you girl when I needed you
where were you last monday when I was overwrought
I was watching the bright bug lamp flicker
you were doing up the dim dim 40-watt
I was alone with Pepe Lopez
I just couldn't do the schmooze
where were you girl when I needed you
where are you this sunday morning I'm in shaky health
I am in the back yard leaking on the spot where you proclaimed yourself
you are hungry wanting breakfast and my heart is in a stew
where were you girl when I needed you
