Toil Away In Retail Lyrics

You take me for a cipher

One who seeks an easy lay

A con-man or a crook

In search of young and tender prey

But that don't do me justice

I ain't one to stoop so low

I'll make you feel you're special

At the late-nite picture show

Don't you know...

I may toil away in retail

Till hell or judgement day

I believe someday I'm gonna prevail

It don't matter darling

Matter what you say...

I'll find a way!

Now I can't really speak

For all the boys you left behind

I'm sure you had your reasons

To leave in your sweet time

A girl like you gets restless

I tell by the way you walk

You ain't impressed by parlor games

Or men who like to talk

And so you walk...

And I toil away in retail

Till hell or judgement day

I believe someday I'm gonna prevail

It don't matter darling

Matter what you say...

I'll find a way!

I ain't like the other men

I've got a dream I long to chase

The years in heated battle

Leave me poised to win the race

And soon I'll win you too

I'll bet you'll open up your shell

I'll be your kind monsieur

And you my mademoiselle

Time will tell...

As I toil away in retail

Till hell or judgement day

I believe someday I'm gonna prevail

It don't matter darling

Matter what you say...

I'll find a way!
