Passed You By

And whatever happened to the girl we used to know? Oh, the one with the mousy hair All fumbling for love in the back of the car But you never quite found it there

And the randy old barmaid, she's gone in after you To the man with the satin bow tie Who looks down his nose as he serves out the booze And he'd rather you passed him by

Passed him by And he'd rather you passed him by

And whatever happened to the deals we used to make Watch your hands, there's a copper about Oh, the pub's not the same since they changed the name And the bankers look shiny and smart

And there's no our friends left, they've all married and gone And they live on the edge of the town All part of the team in the country club scene And they'd rather you passed them by

Passed them by And they'd rather you passed them by

So you've move to the city for to find a new scene With the posers and the girls with flash cars And the rock-and-roll boys with their electrified toys And the managers pass cigars

And your out on your own and you've found a new bone Going back was crazy, I did When your making your name, things we'll never stay the same And it's better you passed them by

Passed them by And it's better you passed them by

Passed them by And it's better you passed them by

So whatever happened to the girl we used to know? Oh, the one with the mousy hair All fumbling for love on the park bench out tonight But you never quite found it there

And the randy old barmaid, she's gone in after you To the man with the satin bow tie Who looks down his nose as he serves out the booze And he'd rather you passed him by

Passed him by And he'd rather you passed him by

Passed him by And he'd rather you passed him by
