Basket of Wings

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm sitting here
With my basket of wings
Just watching the show
Like it's prime time TV

[Chorus]
Every single time
Every single time she walks into a room
Every single time
Some fool tries to shoot his shot at the moon
And every single time
She points at me and says "That one's mine"
And every single time
I just wave with a wing in my hand and SMILE

[Verse 2]
The personal trainer at the gym tried to spot her
She don't even go to that gym, we were WALKING BY
The barista wrote his number on her coffee cup
She handed it to me, said "Baby, you need friends"
The mailman started delivering our mail PERSONALLY
I said "Sir, that's a WATER BILL"

[Bridge - Spoken]
Now I used to get jealous
Back when I was young and STUPID
But after fifteen years with Katalin
You just learn to accept it
She's a beautiful woman
And men are going to be men
And I'm going to be right here
With my wings
Watching them FAIL

(breath)

The funniest part?
She doesn't even NOTICE
She'll come back and say "That waiter was so friendly"
Baby, that man was ready to LEAVE HIS WIFE

[Verse 3]
Last week a man sent a bottle of champagne to our table
She said "Oh how sweet, the restaurant must be celebrating"
I said "Yes dear, they're celebrating YOUR EXISTENCE"
She said "Don't be silly" and drank the whole bottle
The man watched from across the room
Looking at me like I owed him money
I raised my glass and mouthed "THANK YOU"

[Final Chorus]
Every single time
Every single time, it's the same old scene
Every single time
Some brave soul tries to talk to my queen
But every single time
She comes home with me, and locks the door
And every single time
I think Lord, what did I do to deserve this WOMAN

[Outro]
(laughing)
Every single time, man
Every single time

[Verse 1] We were sitting at the bar last Saturday night She went to get a drink, I said "Baby, I'll be right here" Before she made it to the counter, three men stood up One fixed his collar, one checked his breath The third one just PRAYED [Pre-Chorus] And I'm sitting here With my basket of wings Just watching the show Like it's prime time TV [Chorus] Every single time Every single time she walks into a room Every single time Some fool tries to shoot his shot at the moon And every single time She points at me and says "That one's mine" And every single time I just wave with a wing in my hand and SMILE [Verse 2] The personal trainer at the gym tried to spot her She don't even go to that gym, we were WALKING BY The barista wrote his number on her coffee cup She handed it to me, said "Baby, you need friends" The mailman started delivering our mail PERSONALLY I said "Sir, that's a WATER BILL" [Chorus] Every single time Every single time she walks into a room Every single time Some fool tries to shoot his shot at the moon And every single time She points at me and says "That one's mine" And every single time I just wave and say "Hey man, GOOD LUCK" [Bridge - Spoken] Now I used to get jealous Back when I was young and STUPID But after fifteen years with Katalin You just learn to accept it She's a beautiful woman And men are going to be men And I'm going to be right here With my wings Watching them FAIL (breath) The funniest part?
