Oh yeah, all right

Yeah you put me in the trash
Yeah you gave me up for lost
Now I see that you're doing alright
Take a look at me and count the cost

Baby can't you see
I'm short on greens?
I am your long lost man
You don't recognize me

Yeah

I used to load you up with cash
I used to dress you like a dream
All the fancy food, you always wolfed it down
Yeah but you never made a scene

Baby can't you see
I'm no fantasy?
I am your long lost man
You don't recognize me

Yeah that's all right
... the sympathy

Standing around in the rain
With my hands frozen
Looking around for small change
In your window

Out in the cold once again
Write out a cheque for old flames
Pity for old time's sake
I'll make your heart glow

Yeah I'm your long lost man
Don't you recognize me?
Give me some money baby, I'm broke
Why don't you, why don't you dig right down in your purse and
Give me some dough?

Yeah don't you remember me baby?
Don't you remember all those Jean Paul Gaultier dresses I bought you
And all those tickets to the opera?
And what about that bright red Ferrari I bought you now
And all those, all those shoes?

Yeah I know it's the recession baby, but give me some money
Yeah come on now be generous
