Good morning, good afternoon,

And what have you got to say?

Well I'm waiting, but I can't stay long,

It's such a lovely day.

There's a time to be talking

And a time when it's no use.

Right now I think the things you say

Are liable to confuse.



I've just gone solo.

Do you play solo?

Ain't life a solo?



What a wonderful way to live,

She's travelling all over the world.

Why, the fame and all the golden

Opportunities unfurled.

No time for the gent with the Mulliner Bentley

And heaven knows what else.

Why, he wouldn't even stand a chance

With all his oil-wells.



She just went solo.

Do you play solo?

Ain't life a solo?



I've always lived in a mansion

On the other side of the moon.

I've always kept a unicorn

And I never sing out of tune.

I could tell you that the grass is really greener

On the other side of the hill,

But I can't communicate with you

And I guess I never will.



We've all gone solo.

We all play solo.

Ain't life a solo?
