Lyrics
VERSE 1:
Sweet little Judy's all alone tonight.
No one comes and no one calls.
She leaves the light on till late at night,
reading novels in her bed.
Sweet little Judy's never one to fight.
Her mother's somewhere in L.A.
She hears the trolleys rumble by at night,
wondering what it's like to be dead.
CHORUS:
And I-I know I'm in love with her, but she don't know my name.
So many people are in love with her, but Judy's not the same.
VERSE 2:
Sweet little Judy gets to work on time.
Sharpens pencils at her desk.
She really thinks that her boss is fine,
and he loves her like the rest.
Sweet little Judy takes the green line home,
makes her dinner, cleans the pans.
She sighs and switches the TV on,
slips away to foreign lands.
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Hang on Judy! Can't you see that this won't last.
Hang on Judy! Can't you forget the past?
lead guitar/ instrumental Verse
VERSE 3:
Sweet little Judy takes her meds on time,
feels so numb, a little blind.
She sees the Brighton doctor twice a month,
and they go tunneling through her mind.
Sweet little Judy takes no joy in life--
been three years since she's tried.
People say she's never been quite right
ever since her sister died.
CHORUS
