[Verse 1 – Jemaine]
Loretta wrote it off with a letter
She told me she'd be leaving and her life would be better
Joan called it off over the phone
After the tone, she left me all alone
Jen said she'd never ever see me again
When she saw me again, she said it again
Jan met another man
Oh, Liza got amnesia, just forgot who I am
Felicity said there was no electricity
Emily, no chemistry
Fran ran, Bruce turned out to be a man
Oh Flo had to go, I could not go with the flow

[Refrain 1 – Jemaine]
Carol Brown just took the bus out of town
But I'm hoping that you'll stick around

[Bridge – Bret (*Jemaine*, **Bret and Nigel**)]
He doesn't cook or clean
He's not good boyfriend material
*We can eat cereal*
You'll lose interest fast, his relationships never last
*Shut up, girlfriends from the past*
**He says he'll do one thing and then he goes and does another thing**
*Who organized all my ex-girlfriends into a choir
And got them to sing?*
**(Ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh)** *Ah, shut up*
**(Ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh)** *Shut up, girlfriends from the past*
[Verse 2 - Jemaine (*Bret and Nigel*, **Jemaine and Bret**)]
Mimi will no longer see me *(Do do, do-do do do)*
Brittany, Brittany hit me *(Do do, do-do do do)*
Paula, Persephone, Stella, and Stephanie *(Do, do, do, do, do)*
**Well, there must be fifty ways that lovers have left me**

[Refrain 2 – Jemaine and Bret]
Carol Brown just took the bus out of town

[Bridge 2 - Jemaine (*Bret*, **Bret and Nigel**, ***all three***)]
Love is a delicate thing, it could just float away on the breeze
*(He said the same thing to me)*
How can we ever know we've found the right person in this world?
*(He means he looks at other girls)*
Love is a mystery, oh, it does not follow rules
*(This guy is a fool*
**He'll always be a boy, he's a man who never grew up)**
I thought I told you to shut up
**(Ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh)**
Mona, you told me you were in a coma
***(Ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh)***
Who organized this choir?
**(Ah, ah, ah, ahhhhh)**
Was it you, Carol Brown?
Was it you, Carol Brown?
[Outro - Jemaine *(Bret and Jemaine)*]
Carol Brown just took the bus out of town
But I'm hoping that you'll stick around
*(Do do, do-do do do)*
*Stick around*
*(Do do, do-do do do)*
Stick around
*(Do do, do-do do do)*
Stick around
