Black and blue from passing around, Whitey says, "the Lady ain't a hit no more"

Cecilia Amanda, I don't want to see you get like you got before

Bb                   Gm                Eb                        Gm
Another patient in a party dress yesterday, dancing on a remnant scratch

Bb                          Gm                Eb        D
In a place where lonely men pay to make their opposites match.

D            A              Em                   G       F   D   C Bb D
Little Miss Amanda wants to know how long you're going to be gone

And she asked me can I fix it so your record plays the rest of her song

Bb              Gm                        Eb       Gm
Because every remembrance of you has been buried below

Bb                Gm  Eb      D
Every memory that I unhappily know

The things you promised that you never did

But I don't think I'm going to answer, oh

D                   A               Em                  G       F    D          C Bb D
black and blue from passing on now, whitey has paid you back to your daily score

If you got a little baby now, I don't want to see you around here no more     Ah

Amanda put on her new party dress yesterday, dancing to a record you scratched

I'm some dealing amateur actor making opposites match
