[Verse 1]
When I get back home, I'll have time to think
None of you are mean, don't bother me while we're so upfront
When I get back home, I'll have another drink
I'd rather sleep it off alone, to be blunt
The husbands are all looking for an excuse to leave
While the wives all make arrangements that they don't intend to keep
There's not a cocktail within reach that isn't up my sleeve
Not a canapé that doesn't make me weep
[Verse 2]
When I get back home, I'll keep me company
Get my head stuck in a book, forget I ever wore this dress
I think I'll go back home, it could be good for me
It's not me it's you you're trying to impress
[Chorus]
If my body language tells you so
Let it be so
[Verse 3]
May a deeper understanding never follow you
May you remain naive forever, may you never pull the thread
Of the terrible un-loneliness engulfing you
May you never stop to think what you have said
[Verse 4]
When I get back home, I'll have simplicity
A pencil for a memory, a tissue for a rose
When I get back home, the words will come to me
If I was quicker to the point, I'd offer those
[Chorus]
If my body language tells you so
Let it be so
