But you're wrong Steve, You See, It's Only Solitaire

Only Solitaire lyrics

Brain-storming habit-forming battle-warning weary
winsome actor spewing spineless chilling lines ---
the critics falling over to tell themselves he's boring
and really not an awful lot of fun.
Well who the hell can he be when he's never had V.D.,
and he doesn't even sit on toilet seats?
Court-jesting, never-resting --- he must be very cunning
to assume an air of dignity
and bless us all with his oratory prowess,
his lame-brained antics and his jumping in the air.
And every night his act's the same
and so it must be all a game of chess he's playing ---
``But you're wrong, Steve: you see, it's only solitaire.''

1. Karen Carpenter at her best!
SOLITAIRE
(Neil Sedaka/Phil Cody)

There was a man, a lonely man
who lost his love through his indifference
a heart that cared that went unshared
until it died within his silence

And solitaire's the only game in town
and every road that takes him takes him down
while life goes on around him everywhere
he's playing solitaire

And keeping to himself he plays the game
without her love, it always ends the same
and by himself it's easy to pretend
he'll never love again

A little hope goes up in smoke
just how it goes, goes without saying
There was a man, a lonely man
who would command the hand he's playing
