Nice Legs Shame about the Face - The Monks/Dave & The Derros/The Top Cats

Nice Legs Shame about the Face

Met her on a blind date
Helping out an old mate
Waiting at the corner
She's be dressed in black
There was I expecting a really tasty bird
He said she was good looking
I should have doubted his word
When I saw her there
She was a real disgrace
I thought nice legs, shame about the face

I had to take her dancing
I couldn't let her down
So we caught the bus
To the other side of town
Out upon the dance floor
I wasn't getting far
So I had a drink with my friends up at the bar
I asked them what they thought of her
They fell about the place
And they said nice legs, shame about her face

She said, could we go bowling,
I said that would be fine
But when I bought the tickets
She'd already changed her mind
She was turning out to be a real hard case
Nice legs, shame about the boat race

Downed a gin and soda
Tapped me on the shoulder
Whispered in my ear
It's getting kind of late
When I took her home
We hardly said a thing
I walked her to the door,
Expected to go in
She looked me up and down
And really put me in my place
She said nice legs, shame about your face
Nice legs, shame about your face
