She Came In Through The Bathroom Window

(album: High On A Ridge Top - 1972)

She came in through the bathroom window
Protected by a silver spoon
But now she sucks her thumb and wonders
By the banks of her own lagoon

Didn't anybody tell her?
Didn't anybody see?
Sundays on the phone to Monday
Tuesdays on the phone to me

She said she'd always been a dancer
And worked at fifteen clubs a day
And though she thought I knew the answers
Well, I knew what I could not say

And so I quit the police department
And got myself a steady job
And though she tried so hard to help me
She could steal but she could not rob

Didn't anybody tell her?
Didn't anybody see?
Sundays on the phone to Monday
Tuesdays on the phone to me, oh yeah

She came in through the bathroom window
Protected by a silver spoon
But now she sucks her thumb and wonders
By the banks of her own lagoon

Didn't anybody tell her?
Didn't anybody see?
Sundays on the phone to Monday
Tuesdays on the phone to me, oh yeah
