Remember (Ticket Stubs) 10/23/88

I went to the movies only last night
But I don't remember what I saw
I was with that girl with the long blond hair
Whose beauty breaks all law
And then we sat upon the rocks and drank champagne
She gave my neck a rub
So even though the movie wasn't all that great
I kept the ticket stub
I'll remember
I'll remember
When the water drains out of my life's tub
I'll have that ticket stub
We went and saw a play together
Y'know one of those modern things
The leading man didn't have a hand
And the telephone never rings
But she crossed her legs and looked at me so shy
And I thought - Aye, where's the rub?
I fell asleep during the second act
But I kept that ticket stub
I'll remember
I'll remember
I could lose my mind in a foreign pub
But I'll have that ticket stub
I was looking through her souvenirs
When my stomach took a plunge
And my heart which had been oh so clean
Was dirtied by this grunge
I died a thousand deaths right then
And I knew she had been mean
Inside her drawer were ticket stubs
From films I'd never seen
I'll remember
I'll remember
Like a steaming bullet in a baby cub
I kept that ticket stub
