I lived in a tenement six floors above
I lent you my records and I lent you my love
But you left me on the weekend without a by-your-leave
That's a dirty and a low-down trick
My folks all think you're mean.

But I don't mind, that's kind of nifty
You always see those break-ups in the movies
And just like a light honey you put me out
Now I'm gonna do my best
To get you back in the nest you came from.

You can erase me if you want to
Turn your back on other men
But whenever you're ready
Honey, we'll go steady again.

It's nasty without you in my little room
I miss you like crazy, please come back soon
I was joking with those things I said
I couldn't have been thinking
If you don't come back I think I'll crack just like my old ceiling.

You can erase me if you want to
Turn your back on other men
But whenever you're ready
Honey, we'll go steady again.

You can erase me if you want to
Turn your back on other men
But whenever you're ready
Honey, we'll go steady again
Honey, we'll go steady again.
