miss james

i read about her in the magazine

the writer painted her in colors of a queen

other people said bad things instead

so i was curious to check up what i'd read

but askin' around

she couldn't be found

strange

elusive miss james

two weeks later

i was down the shrine

saw a pretty girl who would suit me fine

rushin' around we forgot to trade names

i didn't connect her with the one they called miss james

i was surprised

when i realized

the two were one and the same

i had the phone company give her number to me

i called her at home

she said she was alone

would she see me tonight?

yeah

that was alright
