Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town 
As long as I can dream it's hard to slow this swinger down 
So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doin' fine 
You can always find me here and havin' quite a time 
 
Chorus 
 
It's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright 
Anyway, my eyes are not accustomed to this light 
And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete 
So I must go back to my room and make my day complete 
 
Chorus 
 
Don't tell me I've nothin' to do
