You’re Moving Out Today Lyrics By Carole Bayer Sager

    i stayed out late one night and you moved in
    i didn’t mind ’cause of the state you were in
    may i remind you that it’s been a year since then

    today the landlady she said to me what did she say
    your loony friend just made a pass at me slap him in the face
    perhaps you might enjoy a cottage by the sea

    so pack your toys away
    your pretty boys away
    your 45s away
    your alibis away
    your spanish flies away
    your onemoretries away
    your old tiedyes away
    you’re moving out today

    i’m so sorry i’m so sorry

    your nasty habits ain’t confined to bed ha ha ha ha
    the grocer told me what you do with bread what do you do
    why don’t you take up with the baker’s wife instead of me fool

    pack up your rubber duck
    i’d like to wish you luck
    your funny cigarettes
    your sixtyone cassettes
    pack all your clothes away
    your rubber hose away
    your olddayglos away
    you’re moving out today

    pack up your dirty looks
    your songs that have no hooks
    your stacks of modern screen
    your portrait of the queen

    your mangy cat away
    your baby fat away
    you’re headed thataway
    you’re moving out today

    pack up your fork and spoon
    please leave my lorna doones
    your map of mozambique
    your water bed that leaks
