Opening on Thompson Songtext
von Baskervilles

Guess what
I ran into Christine
Looking for quarters
By a pay telephone
You know her
She wears wife-beaters
With a tattoo on her shoulder
Of a rabid dog

So Christine
What′s going on?
There's a movie down on Thompson
Would you like to come along?

Should I go?
I don′t know
Opening on Thompson
People there
I don't know
Opening on Thompson


Christine said I gotta run
Call me later for directions
Got better posture all of a sudden
I said What time?
She said About seven

On the way home
I bought a new sweater
Eight bucks
Could've done better
Since you′re 21

Should I go?
I don′t know
Opening on Thompson
People there I don't know
Opening on Thompson


The party was bigger
Than I′d imagined
My brand new sweater
Was high fashion
All the drinks were served for free
And I stared at Christine
And she started at me
Maybe I'll find a party next week
Maybe I′ll ask Christine
If she'll like to come along
