Lyrics
I suppose the latest thing
The latest thrill
Is to watch Mr. Nobody
From Nowhereville
Make love to your wife and just sit still
If that's the plan
You can count me out
That's the kind of progress I can do without
(Tom, enough)
Oh, don't you know
The latest thing, the beans to spill (Jay -)
Is your wife never loved you and she never will
So don't you die upon that hill
We met and fell in love five years ago
It makes me laugh to think you didn't know
I didn't know Daisy then
And I'll be damned if you go within a mile of her
Unless you brought groceries to the back door!
You're the one who double crossed her
(All this from a cheap imposter)
Sorry, but I fear you've lost her
He's slick and he's fast
And he'll run out of gas
None of this was made to last
A quick little fling that will quietly pass
None of this was made to last
You're one to talk about flings!
Nick, did Tom ever tell you
Why they really left Chicago?
He ripped the fender off his car
And the chambermaid with him broke her arm!
(Stay out of it!)
Even for you, that was a scandal for the ages
And how much did you pay to stay off the social pages?
Every so often, I might go off on a spree
(A spree?)
I make a fool of myself
(No Tom, you make a fool of me)
You leave a trail of lies that never ends
(I said stay out of it!)
We all know, so why pretend?
And here I thought that we were friends
I see now this is a conspiracy
(Oh, go chase yourself)
Old sport, it's time to face reality
Daisy's leaving you (Is that your estimation?)
She doesn't love you (I love how all your money reeks of desperation)
Go on and tell him (You flash your cash to buy)
That you're through (some cheap panache and charm)
(But who bought Daisy's diamond ring)
(And put a baby in her arms?)
Does Daisy know the kind of work you do?
That shank's been saving his best self for you
This dirty crook has carved out quite a niche
He's selling all my booze
And getting filthy rich (He's lying! Daisy)
(Tell him) He's slick and he's fast and he'll run out of gas
None of this was made to last (She decides)
A parlor trick! (what's built to last)
With a make-believe past (she decides)
None of this was made to last (what's made to last) (Daisy)
(Tell him) He's slick and he's fast and he'll run out of gas (she decides)
None of this was made to last (what's made to last)
A parlor trick (she never loved him)
With a make-believe past (she decides)
None of this was (what's made to last)
None of this was (tell him)
None of this was (what's made to last)
None of this was (Tell him!)
