Belinda Every night around this time he has to sing 'Belinda' 'Belinda I love you, don't leave me, I need you' He tried to stop, a while back, but what is he, without her? A one-hit wonder with no hits is what he is.
And anyway he always hears how much it means to people There's a lot of fortysomethings wouldn't be in the world without it So now he has to do it with this lyric in his head
Belinda I loved you And I'm sorry I left you I met somebody younger on a plane
She had big breasts And a nice smile No kids, either, She gave me extra complimentary champagne
No one ever wants to hear the song he wrote for Cindy 'Cindy I love you, I need you, don't leave me' And he can't blame them - they can tell his heart was never in it And Cindy never liked it, but she never much liked him
Belinda I loved you And I'm sorry I left you I met somebody younger on a plane
She had big breasts And a nice smile No kids, either, She gave me extra complimentary champagne
So every night about this time he feels the old self-loathing While the old folks in the audience sing along And he smiles and waves the mike at them so they can do the chorus He's not there, he's somewhere else He's with Belinda in he days before he made it all go wrong
