Dating Eleanor Rigby

Times are tough
I'm dating Eleanor Rigby

I changed my name today
to yesterday

I don't know what to do
so I'm dating Eleanor Rigby

Her skinny thighs
fold in and out

When she drinks coffee
her lips wrinkle like the Beatles

Times are tough
tell that to Rodney Dangerfield

There is no excuse
for dating Eleanor Rigby

Times are tough
her tongue has cellulite

Her eyes hold loneliness
in her underwear

Her breasts long ago
were dealt a blow

Times are tough
I'm dating Eleanor Rigby
