I think I'd like to head on down
To the shopping mall and look around
For a jar of jam or a Pinot Noir
It's Wanda's birthday on Wednesday
Would you like to come along? ---- WHATEVER
On the way we could stop for a bite
At Mom's Cafe if that's all right,
And have a coke or a cafe mocha
A grilled cheese and shoot the breeze ----
My treat. What do you say----- WHATEVER
How do you like my hair this way?
I think it looks like a bad toupee.
A little too short on the sides.
Wanda says I should have it dyed.
I'm sort of thinking henna? ---- WHATEVER
Do you think this shirt goes with these
Pants with the patches on the knees?
Red stripes and olive, maybe not---
I've got one that's apricot
Think I ought to change? WHATEVER
I'm thinking I might quit my job,
I'm tired. Maybe it's time to stop
And sell my house, move away
To Taos, maybe write a play----
Do you think I ought to do it? WHATEVER
Wanda was telling me this morning
She thinks I've gotten boring.
And my values are completely warped
And I'm narrow minded and self-absorbed.
Do you think I am? WHATEVER
THREE TEDIOUS INST BREAKS, with "WHATEVER"
Well, I guess that's all I have to say,
Hope you liked the song okay.
Guess this verse is the end.
Unless you'd like to hear it again.
It's up to you. Either way. WHATEVER
