The Dandy of Suburbia Lyrics by Eddie Japan

Pop Fiction

2019

I do my best work in the aisles
Of the local Home Depot
I came in here looking for something
But I ended up leaving with someone new
In the middle of the afternoon
All over town
You know they come around, they come
They really like my style
I wear the clothes of a man
At least ten years younger
I'm coming off like some phony
Dandy of suburbia
In the middle of the afternoon
Bed Bath and Beyond
Married, single or divorced
They really like my style
Ooh, let the tears flow
Ooh, let the tears flow
I'm not really sure
When they started calling me Eddie
I was just a regular man
Now I'm escorting women
In the middle of the afternoon
Red Roof Motel
Now I'm in demand
Ever since she threw me out
Ooh, let the tears flow
Ooh, let the tears flow
Help me, 'cause I'm falling
Falling in love or falling apart
I don't know
Tell me, 'cause I hear you
Is this more than an afternoon score?
I gotta know
At night, they go home
And curl up with their husbands
And I go back to the empty
Of my one-room apartment
Maybe she thinks of me
Or maybe she stinks of me
Maybe some day they'll find me
Ejected from the vehicle
Or maybe I'll rise up
With the fangs of a viper
It's all or nothing for me
There's never any in between
Singing, do you want me?
Do you want me? Do you want me now?
Ooh, just let the tears flow
Ooh, just let the tears flow
