It's too bad you couldn't come
It's too bad you decided to stay away
It's too bad you couldn't come
It's too bad I really thought you were okay
Yet you still had the nerve
But not especially for me
It's no good you trying to soft-soap me
It's no good I'm telling you
It's no good all we ever do is disagree
But not especially for good ol' me
I want to say I've enjoyed
All the nights we've employed
And the pleasure it's given me
But I cannot except with the greatest respect
Do I make myself perfectly clear
It's too bad you couldn't come
It's too bad you decided to stay away
It's too bad you couldn't come
It's too bad I really thought you were okay
Said you'd be there at nine
Because you changed your mind
But not especially for me
Too bad for you and not for me
Too bad for you and not for me baby
