That's Where She Ends Up

Graham Parker


It's not right the way that you deal with her 
She's not something you handle like cash 
To be undressed like Sunday's leftovers 
To be picked on Monday And Tuesday in the trash
That's where she ends up

It's not right the way that you don't listen 
She's not something you hang on a wall 
To be moved at the earliest convenience 
Well you say that you love her 
You don't love her at all You don't love her at all

One day you'll look round and she won't be there 
She'll disappear in front of your face 
She'll walk over you as if you weren't there 
You never really were there anyway

You can buy her a slice of the good life 
But you're buying time that's all 
One day she'll pull out the big knife 
Well you say that you love her 
You don't love her at all You don't love her at all

One day she'll get wise and drop the big one 
And disappear in front of your face 
That's what comes from lies and living in one 
She never really was there anyway She never really was there anyway
That's where she ends up Never really there anyway
