Lyrics

The empty bottle was half empty, tide was low, and I was thirsty
Saw her sitting at the bar, you know how some girls are
Always making eyes, well she wasn't making eyes

So I sidled up beside her, settled down and shouted, "hi there."
"My name's stewart ransom miller, I'm a serial lady-killer."
She said, "I'm already dead," that's exactly what she said

So we tripped the lights fantastic, we was both made of elastic
Midnight came and midnight went, and I though I was the president
She said, "do you have a car," and I said, "do I have a car?"

What's so great about the barrier reef?
What's so fine about art?
What's so good about a good times van
When you're working on a broken
Working on a broken
Working on a broken man?

When you're working on a broken
Working on a broken
Working on a broken man?

My heart wasn't in it, not for one single minute
I went through the motions with her. her on top, and me on liquor
Didn't do no good, well I didn't think it would

What's so great about the barrier reef?
What's so fine about art?
What's so good about a good times van
When you're working on a broken
Working on a broken
Working on a broken man?

When you're working on a broken
Working on a broken
Working on a broken man

When you're working on a broken
Working on a broken
Working on a broken man
