[Intro] (Deep upright bass and sax groove) Verse 1 Another spotlight, same tables and smoke, Same three chords, honey, leave me alone, He's got a suit and a real slick line, Sugarlips, I been hearin' that one since '99. Verse 2 There's the one who buys the roses, Thinks a dozen's gonna do the trick, There's the one who calls me "baby," Like that name don't make me sick. Chorus Oh, I'm singing to the same old room, Same cologne, same bottles of beer, Same wolf-whistle when I sing way up high — Expecting me to give him the eye. I've seen every face in here at least twice, So unless you're new, I don't have to be nice — 'Cause I'm done... done... with this same old room. [Instrumental verse] Verse 3 The piano man hasn't played anything new all year The bartender pours like he's doing me a favor (please, fill it up), I could sing this set if I was asleep, I just need somebody who isn't a creep. Bridge (spoken-sung, snappy) I've met the tall ones, the fat ones, The ones wo pretend to be single The ones who swear they'll call me — Hey, just don't waste my time I've heard 'em all before, same old lines Try again when you've got somethin' new. Chorus (reprise, bigger, brassier) So I'm singing to the same old room, Same heads bobbing to the same old tune, Give me a stranger, just something new, Some new blood here is long overdue. I might be leaving town in a week or so — Just need to figure out a better place to go, 'Cause I'm through... through... with this same old room. Outro (purred, half-laughing) ...same old room... ...same old crowd... ...I'm done with it all. ... Gotta get outta here... Ha ha, yeah
