lyrics

Hey Doreen
Hey Doreen…I…thought you said you broke up with that guy…but I
Saw you holdin hands and kissin in the parkin lot at Jiffy Lube….
I never thought you’d be so crude
I think it could be time for movin on

Hey Doreen…I joined that church you told me to
And I got confirmed and they said the Holy Spirit would be
Comin-on-in to make me sing…but I did not feel a thing
I think it could be time for movin on
Hey Doreen…I used to love ya
But I think that something’s definitely gone
Don’t know why I’m still thinkin of ya
-think its time for movin on
-think its time for movin on

Hey Doreen I voted for that guy you liked and
He was on TV on a show just the other night
And he lied so slick and skillfully
he lied to you and you lied to me
I think it could be time for movin on
CHORUS
Doreen- I hate the way –you’ve
Always got your way—you’ve
Played upon my foolish heart
Always in control--- you
Stuck it to my soul
I’d rather be alone

Hey Doreen I had this dream that you were queen
And I was just a joker in your castle what a crazy scene-I
I could not make you laugh or sing
I could not do most anything
I think it could be time for movin on
CHORUS & OUT
