Mary Beth is that fancy woman
Standing over there
The expression on her face
Is just like her underwear
Carefully chosen, easy to see through
2 a.m. when the game is up
Tempting to undo (?)
But dawn breaks on her sad smile
And I'll see you around
All the little places around the town
Gabriel was painter
A good one in his youth
Between poverty and a hustle
He chose a substitute
Tenure and a greenhouse
And little trips to Mexico
An affair with a deep-eyed girl
Every couple years or so
When he looks inside at what he hasn't done
He comes tumbling down
To all the little places around the town
Standing over there
The expression on her face
Is just like her underwear
Carefully chosen, easy to see through
2 a.m. when the game is up

But dawn breaks on her sad smile
And I'll see you around
