Lyrics

Bette: "bartender, I'd like a manhattan, please."

Tom: um, stop me if you've heard this one
But I feel as though we've met before
Perhaps I am mistaken
Bette: but it's just that I remind you of
Someone you used to care about
Oh, but that was long ago
Now tell me, do you really think
I'd fall for that old line?
I was not born just yesterday
Besides, I never talk to strangers anyway

Tom: well, hell, I ain't such a bad guy
Once you get to know me
Just thought there ain't no harm
Bette: hey-e-yeh, just try minding your own business, bud
Who asked you to annoy me
With your sad, sad repartee?
Besides, I never talk to strangers anyway

Your life's a dime store novel
This town is full of guys like you
And you're looking for someone
To take the place of her

Tom: you must be reading my mail
'N' you're bitter 'cause he left you
That's why you're drinkin' in this bar
Bette&tom: well, only suckers fall in love
With perfect strangers

Bette: it always takes one to know one, stranger
Tom: maybe we're just wiser now
Bette: yeah, 'n' been around the block
So many times
Tom:that we don't notice
Bette&tom: that we're all just perfect strangers
As long as we ignore
That we all begin as strangers
Just before we find
We really aren't strangers
Anymore

Bette: "aw, you don't look like such a chump."

Tom: "aw, hey babe."
