You Should Have Listened to Al

She said "Don't you think we're going downhill?

And I would hate it to be run-of-the mill

"Oh love me or leave me but please don't deceive me

For if you do, I'll know, believe me

I want you to know I don't want you to go anyway

And yes I was doing alright up until now

I'm beginning to think you should have listened to Al

She picked up her things and said "let's be friends

For all the good and the bad things have their ends"

Then she went lazily leaving me crazily

Wandering lost, the night was hazy

And everyone else looking sure of themselves but not me

And yes I was doing alright up until now

I'm beginning to think you should have listened to Al

Oh she left me the keys and a dozen LPs

A phone bill warning left for the morning

And I left the dark on a seat in the park feeling very strange

And yes I was doing alright up until now

I'm beginning to think you should have listened to Al

You should have listened to Al

Oh, you should have listened to Al
