Consternation on the dance floor, I can't take it any more

My ugly girlfriend has these big eyes

She's running out the door

Get her back, the regulars cry, all the bar-flies are going dry

We need some business

Says the man reaching out with the greasy hand

We need some business

Says the man with the broken heart

Broken hearts are good for business these days

Broken hearts are good for business, always

Mass confusion on the turnpike

Which way did the lady go?

Rumor has it

She was flying through the toll-booth down the road

Get her back, the troopers cry

All the judges need a boost

Bad reviews in the daily news

And the chickens come home to roost

Broken hearts are good for business these days

Broken hearts are good for business, always
