Lyrics
Pity the poor man, pity the sad man Pity the green man, who couldn't afford to orgy Pity the policeman, pity the snowman Pity the woman, who couldn't afford to orgy "Say, Johnny, you're a little lonesome? Oh, come on big boy, let me show you Mmm, don't you wanna good time?" Good for the postman, good for the con man Good for the milkman, they can afford to orgy Good for the butcher, good for the astronaut Good for the curate, they can afford to orgy "Come on, honey, keep breaking my heart Ooh, you're breaking my heart. Aah, aah" If it's a problem, getting together Leave it alone, it's the easiest way Great while it lasts, but it don't last forever Nothing like living real dangerously "Ooh, come on, give yourself a break. Oh, don't worry, baby, you'll get over it. Mmm, you'll get over it." Sorry to hear it, sorry to see it Sorry to mention I couldn't afford to orgy Seems such a bother, one thing, another Tempting and teasing, just for an orgy "Oh no, you have to take a chance. Ah, you've gotta give me one chance anyway, ha heh heh heh. Mmm, you can sure do it. Ah, mmm. C'mon. Mmm. Ooh. Ah, ooh, mmm.
