Lyrics
BLUE BOOK PRICE
(c) Pam Hanna
A one-woman man you said you'd always be
No fooling around, that was your guarantee
You said variety's not the spice of your life
I can challeng that right now with what I found tonight
CHORUS
I saw a 5-star name in your little blue book
Apparently my value has been overlooked
I thought I was the one you most appreciated
But a newer model came along
And got a better rating
You didn't bargain for goodbye
But that's the blue book price
You said stars by her name didn't mean a thing
You just doodle a lot in books and magazines
Said you've done nothing wrong so you needn't explain
Believing you is hard to do since I found that name
BRIDGE
I could have been forever fooled
If I hadn't found your book of blue
Now you're gonna have to pay the price
For all your lies
CHORUS
