I'm a poached egg without a piece of toast Yorkshire pudding without a beef to roast I'm a haunted house that hasn't got a ghost When I'm without you I'm a mousetrap without a piece of cheese I'm Vienna without the Viennese I'm DaVinci without the Mona Lisa I'm skies without blue When you don't hang around I'm a kangaroo without a hop When will you show me that as Romeo you're not a flop I'm Western without a hitching post I'm a network without a coast-to-coast Just a poached egg without a piece of toast Each time I'm without you I am Venice without a gondolier Or Milwaukee without a glass of beer Could be Switzerland without a mountaineer When I'm without you Like Columbus without Queen Isabel Neiman Marcus without a thing to sell Mr. Hilton with only one hotel And what can I do? Each time you wander hinder and yonder, don't know where I'm at I only know I'm lonely so I'm here to tell you that I'm a girlfriend without a thing to boast Any egghead would have me diagnosed As a poached egg without a piece of toast Each time I'm without you I'm a poached egg
