We have so little cash between us    We shouldn't have spent it all on a meal    But I couldn't resist the ambiance    I needed to feel like I had something       You ask me why I'm so angry    At the French couple next to us    They're laughing at their entrees    What they don't know is   How far we'd go for a little luck       We have so little cash between us    I shouldn't have ordered those fillets    But I couldn't resist it    I'd been hungry for days       And why am I angry    At the French couple sitting next to us    They're laughing at their entrees   Laughing at the presentation    I guess we're not good enough       You ask me if we can afford this    Oh don't trouble your head    I'll take the tab    I see it made you glad    But somehow it put us in a different mind-set       You ask me why I want to kill them    The French couple in the booth next to ours    They're laughing at the dessert tray    While I consider    The price of a chocolate star       I'm watching them walking away    Having a lovely night    I'd like to say I've had one too       But I'm beginning to feel so empty    Even though I paid for two       You ask me why I just don't follow them    The French couple on the way to the theater    I know I can never be like them    And they won't let me in    Unless I usher       We have so little cash between us    We should have stayed home and made the rice    I thought I'd take us out this evening    Why not go someplace nice?       Why can't we go someplace nice?   Why can't we go someplace nice?      Why can't we go where the French couple goes?       Someplace nice...
