"Idiot Waltz" lyrics

Idiot Waltz

What have I done
With the baby tonight?
Everyone wants to play
The phone just stopped ringing
I forgot how to sing and
There's no more room at the table

Heard you all talking
And toasting last night
But somebody's just barely there
The kitchen's too hot
And she's roasting alright
And I miss my usual chair

Here comes that shine
Looks a lot like your eye
And here comes the moon like a fool
There goes my heart
I swear I dreamt this part
Like idiots usually do
Why we do that?
Now you know it's true

Come over here
And wind up my ear
Cause somebody wants me brand new
They say if you're smart
Then you won't buy used parts
So I'm glad you're an idiot too
