Go Cry on Somebody Else’s Shoulder (vocal overdub take 2) Songtext
von The Mothers of Invention

A year ago today
Was when you went away
But now you come back knockin′ on my door
And you say you're back to stay, But I say...

Go cry on somebody else′s shoulder
I'm somewhat wiser now
And one whole year older

I sure don't need you now
And I don′t love you
Anymore

You cheated me baby,
And told some dirty lies about me
Fooled around with all those other guys

That′s why I had to set you free
I sure don't need you now and I don′t love you
Anymore


A year ago today
You went away
And now you come back crying
Crying, crying: please, let me in

But I don't need you
No I don′t love you anymore
So go lean on... go cry on
Somebody else's door

Go cry on somebody else′s shoulder
I'm somewhat wiser now
And one whole year older

I sure don't need you now
And I don′t love you
Anymore (Oh, my darling!)

Go ahead and cry
Go ahead and let the tears fall outa your eye
Let ′em fall on your dress

Who cares if it makes a mess?
I gave you my high school ring
At the root beer stand

We had a teen-age love baby
I thought it was sharp
It was really so grand... but


You cheated me baby
And told some dirty lies about me
Fooled around with all those other guys

That's why I had to get my khakis pressed
I sure don′t need you now
And I don't love you anymore

Baby, I love you so much, darling
Why don′t you dig me?
I dig you

But you don't dig me
I don′t understand what it is
I had my car re-upholstered
I got my hair processed

I got a nice pompadour job on it
I bought a new pair of shoes
I got some new khakis and I met you
And we went out to get a Coca-Cola...
