A SoHo bar – a broken heart
A brand new start – a brand new me
She grabbed my hand – said “I'm your man”
This stranger said – it's off to bed
But I said “Wait, compare me to a summer's day
The winds that shake the darling buds of May
Woo me, woo me, school me in the ways of love”
Then Jenny Said
“You bring me down”
Don't fool around
Let's go downtown
Then Jenny Said
“You bring me down”
Don't fool around
Let's go downtown
I was perplexed – a little hurt
She tore my shirt – a Stanley knife
She said “I need” – at breakneck speed!
She said “You're fit – get on with it”
But then I said “Grow old, old along with me”
I said “The best, best is yet to be”
I said “The ways, let me count the ways of love” (2 – 3- )
Then Jenny Said
“You bring me down”
Don't fool around
Let's go downtown
Then Jenny Said
“You bring me down”
Don't fool around
Let's go downtown
Now mamma always told me, she said not to talk to strangers
No matter what you do, or who you do, or where you go
But living long and lonely's worse than facing all those dangers
And you know it hurts me so
But you know it's time to go, let's go
I guess we left – both arm in arm
Too much Boone's Farm – We're at her place
Gastric lavage – in her garage
It made no dent – The main event
At first she smacked every little thing
And third, she broke, broke my promise ring
She fooled me, schooled me, tooled me in the ways of love
Then Jenny Said
“You bring me down”
Don't fool around
Let's go downtown
Then Jenny Said
“You bring me down”
Don't fool around
Let's go downtown
Then Jenny Said
“You bring me down”
Don't fool around
Let's go downtown
