I Talked To Thousands Of Girls At The Pub Last Night
We were hanging with Martin and the night was young so we wandered to an Irish pub
It was good to hear my mother tongue

An Australian girl took my entry fee, She had a very light accent. I asked her if she was from Tennessee
She said, "No."

I talked to thousands of girls at the pub last night
I was feeling pretty desperate but I passed it off as though I was all right
But they could tell
Everybody could tell

A British beauty with a surly Scot took after Audrey Tatou in «He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not»
She loved mе not

I asked two gorgeous Americans to tеll me their names, they said, "No sprecken zee Doitch!" when the waiter came, though he spoke English to them
I told him I was Canadian

I talked to thousands of girls at the pub that night I was feeling pretty desperate but I passed it off as though I was all right
But they could tell
Everybody could tell

Some South African girls on the parquet floor started dancing to the Rebel Yell. They wanted more, more, more
More, more, more

By the time we left I was feeling annoyed, with each and every beautiful girl it seemed
There was a boy
Looking overjoyed
I talked to thousands of girls at the pub last night
But I left like an injured bird at the end of a long flight
They could tell
Everybody could tell

I talked to thousands of girls at the pub that night I was feeling pretty desperate but I passed it off as though I was all right
But they could tell
Everybody could tell
