christine lavin - what was i thinking? lyrics
[spoken intro]
this is a brand new song, i’ve never performed it, this next one, so i don’t know, it could be terrible, i’m not sure
but i’m just gonna try it out, ok? here we go
[verse 1]
it was a last-minute invitation
i did not have a thing to wear
i ran into the store, i said
“i need something black, something formal
other than that, i don’t care”
i made it to the theater as the lights dimmed
the first act was brilliantly fun
when i caught my reflection during intermission
i thought, “what have i done?”
[chorus]
what was i thinking?
what was i blind?
when i bought this outfit
i must have been out of my mind
what was i thinking?
look at this dress
i’m taking up drinking
my life is a mess
[verse 2]
my good friend said “i know you’re going to love him
i’ve known him for a long, long time
and if i wasn’t happily married myself
in a heartbeat i would try to make him mine”
so i figure, i’ll take my chances
i mean really, what harm could it do?
makes you wonder about your good friends and their motivations
when something like this happens to you
[chorus]
what was she thinking?
who is this guy?
maybe i will choke on this pork chop
and conveniently die
what was i thinking – i mean what was she thinking?
quick, sharpen this knife
i’m taking up drinking
and i’m thinking of ending my life
[bridge]
ach du lieber

que lastima!
[spoken]
i just threw that in to try to make it like a world music song ’cause i hear that’s gonna be the next big thing to take over the pop charts and i wanna be part of it
[verse 3]
oh it was late, i had insomnia
the tv stair stepper started to look good
i thought to myself, “should i buy it?”
i heard bruce jenner’s voice say “yes, you should”
and that snackmaster and that bald-headed man spray
and that victoria jackson makeup kit
now i can barely get around my apartment
it’s so full of all this stupid stuff
[chorus]
what was i thinking?
look at this junk!
i can’t blame this on drinking
i have never- hardly- i
right now i’m not drunk!
what was i thinking?
when will this end?
what was i thinking?
when will this end?
what was i thinking?
this song has no end
what was i thinking?
ok, that’s the end
