Egads
Written January 1989
Appears on Out From Under The Covers
Verse Chords: E-G-A-D-A


I woke up this morning -- about eleven o'clock
My breath crawled away and my mouth tasted like a sock
There was a knock at the door -- drug me from my bed
In some underwear 'cross the floor like I was dead.

The woman from the party was there and she looked hot
But she took a look at me and frowned, I guess I was not.

Chorus:
Egads - I said egads
I would have said "shit" if it was together to be had.
Egads - I said egads
Why did she have to come now, I would have rather seen my dad.

So I said "Good morning, how you doing, can I help you, baby, what's up?"
She said "You left these at the party, so I picked them up."
She held up my pants -- I did a double-take
Oh what did I, what did I, what did I do in that state?

She held up some underwear -- "I think you left these, too"
Then I looked in the mirror -- I was wearing lady's underroos...
Chorus:
Egads - I said egads
I would have said "shit" if it was together to be had.
Egads - I said egads
On second thought, I'm glad this girl wasn't my dad.

So I gulped and invited her in while I became less bare
She said "No, that's ok, I just dropped by for my underwear."
I said "These are yours?" -- and she nodded her head
She looked at me and laughed... "You don't remember the bed?"

I said "Are you sure you don't want to come in and talk?" on a hunch
"No, that's ok, my husband's expecting me for lunch."

Chorus:
Egads - I said egads
I would have said "shit" if it was together to be had.
Egads - I said egads
She has a husband, probably kids
I can't remember what I did
Oh God, he's probably into guns
I hope that we had lots of fun
'cause all I can say now is just egads!
