lyrics (c) 1996 Jonathan Caws-Elwitt
If you've got an hour and a half
Why not come with me?
I know a place where you'll laugh energetically
I've got these friends, decent folks
And you'll like their jokes
Just be prepard to go home with eccentric quotes
That's my crowd at Mitchell's Diner
Hangin' out at Mitchell's Diner
Don't misconstrue what you hear and then run away
They mean no offense
And you know that it's just their way
You may be shocked by my pals
And it's not your fault
You've got to take what they say
With a grain of salt
Rosalie won't look at you
But she'll see everything you do
And probably she'll dream of you tonight
And Jeremy will read out loud
Till Phillip takes his French horn out
And Abigail will ask your private thoughts
I hope you'll come
And you won't think that it's a drag
If it's a bust you can go
And I'll pay your cab
I've brought people here more than once
And you've got to believe --
They're shy at first
But they're always the last to leave
Some of us may bring some beer
And Mitchell might pull up a chair
And let us try his special new desserts
And Eleanor might start to snore
But she'll tell us to talk some more
And Diane's nose will wiggle when she laughs
Cynthia and Doug hold hands
And eat their pie like donuts
And whenever their eyes meet it makes me smile
