Sunday nights that you want her like velvet cake
Sweet heart can bargain half price mistakes
She will go down with her ship like a good captain
You're sitting on the dock playing for an audience of one
Pacing your apartment's linoleum floors
Get a call from an old friend she never liked him before
He will drive all over three lanes while you tight, shotgun
Windshield wipers waving for an audience of one
You came out from the country wearing mamas clothes
You were born in the city with daddy's domino's
You need a record you can move to
Well we got one
Drop the needle, we are playing for an audience of one
Drop the needle, we are playing for an audience of one
One gets all of you
Two's jealous
Three gets even less
Four divides you up, then you're left
Pleasing all your guests
Reach out and put your finger and touch the globe
Spin it round and where it stops you got to pack your bags and go
Land in the Mojave desert, sing for the sun
Three's too many when you're playing for an audience of one
Two's too busy when you're playing for an audience of one
One is the only when you're playing for an audience of one
