I stayed up all night when Ii heard that you’d checked out

From a seedy motel in that seaside resort

The one that we went to together, we weren’t together not then or ever

We did some bad things & never got caught

Truth just the truth you wanted to tell it 

No matter whose feelings wouldn’t be saved

You’d call all my boyfriends losers, I made excuses for your abuses

Then you’d turn around & lie about your age

But you got caught you got caught

You seemed too smart & I never thought

You’d get caught you’d get caught

In a bath in a seaside resort

We spoke a week or so before they called me 

You were on fire about some conspiracy 

Going to court to defend your reputation 

Which needed no defending if they’d only asked me

But you got caught you got caught

You seemed too smart & I never thought

You’d get caught you’d get caught

In a bath in a seaside resort

A man for all seasons a saint of lost weekends

My dear best friend, you loved me thought I

But the syrup of darkness was waiting, no hesitating, so captivating

Into the abyss – die die die die die

And you got caught you got caught

You seemed too smart & I never thought

You’d get caught you’d get caught

In a bath in a seaside resort

But you got caught you got caught

In a bath in a seaside resort

In a bath in a seaside resort
