Square Deal

A girl of little consequence

Was dying to be a bride

When she saw him at the laundromat

And she followed him inside

He offered her some softener

But could not stem the tide

The water flowed, they shared a load

And she thanked him for the ride

Now this girl of little confidence

Was tired of being alone

So she fed him through the afternoon

And she let him drive her home

She swore that she'd adore him

With a love so overblown

That he grabbed some air and left her there

And promised he would phone

She wants a big square man

With a big square jaw

And a big square life so real

All she wants is love and a square deal

A girl of little competence

Sits waiting for a call

With perfumed air and perfect hair

And a love affair that's stalled

She faults herself for faltering

So frantic she might fall

For someone she knew secretly

Was nothing after all

She wants a big square man

With a big square house

And a big square hand to feel

All she wants is love and a square deal

She wants a big square man

With a big square job

And a big square heart of steal

All she wants is love and a square deal
