Susan Falls Apart - Black 47

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Susan goes to work on Fifth Avenue

Every day she wears new stockings and a point of view

Her boss would be lost without her

At least that’s what he told the President

But he don’t know what I know

Or, at least, to the extent that I do

And every night she goes to bed

Hear the pounding in her heart

The world watches while Susan falls apart

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Her dress and lips are tight, sealed in secrecy

One slip between despair and ecstacy

She hides her love behind her shades

No one will catch her crying

But every weekend on her own

She feels like dying, whoa, oh, oh, oh

And late at night in her bed

Here comes that pounding at her heart

The world watches while Susan falls apart

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Susan’s boss goes home to Stamford

On the 8:40 from Grand Central

Poor man’s got so many problems at the office

He needs her, he needs her

More than he could ever tell the world

But what good does that do the girl

She keeps it all inside

Til the pounding hits her heart

Then the world is unconcerned while Susan falls apart

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do…
