Madelaine

If it doesn't kill you it'll make you stronger

But if it kills you you'll be dead

Use fluorescent bulbs, they'll probably last longer

But the buzzing sound might hurt your head

There's two ways of looking at your problem

Right or wrong, win or lose

Stand around and you'll never get the job done

All you have to do is choose

Madelaine, stay with me

Madelaine, leave me be

Madelaine, just tell me what you're gonna do

Madelaine, stay for more

Madelaine, use the door

Madelaine, I'm gonna leave it up to you

You could buy a dog to keep away the bad guys

But you'd have to walk him every day

You could open up a Chicken Kitchen franchise

Piss off the ASPCA

Either way, you better make your mind up

What is what, which is which

'Cause on the mound, they're ready with the windup

And you can't miss another pitch

Madelaine, stay with me

Madelaine, leave me be

Madelaine, just tell me what you're gonna do

Madelaine, stay for more

Madelaine, use the door

Madelaine, I'm gonna leave it up to you

So many tasties on your plate

What is a hungry girl to do?

Already it may be too late

I'm sick of cooking for you

You could tell me that it's getting past your bedtime

And that you have to say good night

You could tell me that you've had way too much red wine

You would probably be right

Either way, you better wash those glasses

You've got friends coming by

And besides, you're sick of making passes

Truth be told, so am I

Madelaine, stay with me

Madelaine, leave me be

Madelaine, just tell me what you're gonna do

Madelaine, stay for more

Madelaine, use the door

Madelaine, I'm gonna leave it up to you
