[Chorus: Stephin Merritt]
Seduced and abandoned, and baby makes two
Baby, abandoned by you
Seduced and abandoned, and what can I do?
I think I might drink a few

[Verse 1]
Seduced with a grin, I was taken all in
Taken in sin and in shame
Seduced by a smile, I walked down the aisle
Then waited awhile; no one came

[Chorus]
Seduced and abandoned, and baby makes two
Baby, abandoned by you
Seduced and abandoned, and what can I do?
I think I might drink a few

[Verse 2]
Abandoned to weep, I collapsed in a heap
Dutifully sleeping all day
Abandoned to die, I did nothing but cry
In my one-ply negligée

[Chorus]
Seduced and abandoned, and baby makes two
Baby, abandoned by you
Seduced and abandoned, and what can I do?
I think I might drink a few
[Outro]
Yes, I think I might drink a few
And maybe the baby will too
