Back in the cold, cold winter of 1953
I met a girl covered in a coat standing next to me
She took the mittens offa my stringy hands
And said come on boy let’s go downtown for a dance
She was an upcmoing artist with aspiring aims
I was just the last guy in the bars that remained
A few weeks later she decided to leave
And said: you’re pretty cool, but nothing for me
For ages she drew a cubistic masterpiece
And thought with that fine piece of art she could change society
I never understood her dubious point
I asked: up there in the corner, is that a joint?
I never thought that I could fulfil her expectations
Everyday I waited that she’d bring me to the station
So a few weeks later she decided to leave
And said: you’re pretty cool, but nothing for me
