i was alone when the good news came
i was alone in the dark
telephone rang: didn't know what to say
i was alone
 
  put the boy down girl
you don't know where he's been girl
your strength to leave eludes you
his phone calls just confuse you
and in the end he'll lose you
to some obscure excuse
and I don't know what to say
and I don't know what to do
i was alone when the good news came
i was alone
 
  and here's the good news
you'll wake up in your make up
your face full of dirt
you've been surfing with venus
but she's only a flirt
and here's the bad news
here's the bad news
