Tuesday Afternoon - Lyrics by Jennifer Brown


Lyrics
It started on a Tuesday afternoon
Josie was one of those easy girls who had wideeyes
And she was drawn in by the incense at the
Mission Room Bar
You know, once she got in the boys attacked herlike a movie star
And as soon as she got nervous she was drinkin?and smokin?
Like a lover caught chokin? on another man?s bone
But clicking her heels wouldn?t get her home
She called me laughin? from a pay phone
ON THIS TUESDAY AFTERNOONJOSIE GOT CAUGHT IN THE MISSION ROOMWHERE THE MEN ARE CRAZY AND THEWOMEN ARE,TOOBEFORE YOU KNOW IT?S WEDNESDAY IN THEAFTERNOONIN THE AFTERNOON
Just before 2:15 in the morning
Josie was doin? the Hustle with a ruffneck named
James
And they were bumpin? and grindin? and grindin?and bumpin?
You know once you get there it?s hard to stop thebass from pumpin?
And as soon as she was willing, Jimmy?s jeep wasrollin?
And her lips were swollen from the fat shit she wastokin?
By 4 o?clock his waterbed was broken
She called me nervous from his cell phone
CHORUS
It ended on a Wednesday afternoon
Josie arrived at my apartment with mascararunning down her cheeks
She was crying like a baby, saying, ?
What amistake!?I had to sit on my hands to keep them fromslapping her face?
Cause as soon as I asked her if she usedprotection
I saw Josie?s complexion turn a shade of gray
Now what am I supposed to say?
Just don?t party on a weekday
CHORUS
