[Chorus]
You had a good thing and you blew it
When it came right down to it
You couldn't get down to it
What you couldn't get down to
Was treatin' our girlfriend right
Such a lovely girl, such a sweet delight

[Piano Solo]

[Chorus]
You had a good thing and you blew it
When it came right down to it
You couldn't get down to it
Anyone could see
That somethin' wasn't right
We never saw her so upset
As when you were comin' for the night

[Verse 1]
She jabs on her perfume (Jabs)
Slashes on her lipstick (Slashes)
Snaps (Snaps) on her bustier
Yanks on her (Yanks) thong
She jams on her stilettos (Jams)
Crams on her hat (Crams)
She's doing her duty
But she's hissin' like a cat—rеow!
Just tryin' to mobilize her lover
To—uh—zеro
Oh, with her booty
[Chorus]
You had a good thing and you blew it (And you blew it)
When it came right down to it
You couldn't get down to it
I'm not talking flexibility
Or the Kama Sutra
But you were only nice to her
When it would suit'cha
(Play it, Sam)
(I don't think that's Sam)

[Post-Chorus]
And now you hear someone else
Is treating our girlfriend right
You wanna know what she does
When they come to spend the night?

[Verse 2]
Well...
She dabs on her perfume (Dabs)
Kisses her lipstick (Kisses)
Caresses (Caresses) her bustier
Thrills herself softly with her thong
She admires her stilettos
Turning that-a-way (Ah) and then this-a-way (Oh)
She takes great delight
In mobilizing her lover
To greater (Greater), greater (Greater), greater (Greater)
Greater heights
With her beauty
[Chorus]
You had a good thing and you blew it (And you blew it)
When it came right down to it
You couldn't get down to it
And what you couldn't get down to
Was treatin' someone right
We never saw our girlfriend so lonely
As when you'd spend the night
