Lyrics

Seth Shapiro got his law degree He moved to Brooklyn from Schenectady, '93 Got some clients in the food industry He says it's not the money, it's the recipes He calls his mom, says he's doing fine She's got somebody on the other line Puts Coldplay on, pours a glass of wine Curls up with a book about organized crime When it's late, and it's hot And a date with the Late Show's all that you've got Don't give out, don't give up One of these nights you might find someone to love Someone to love (yeah) Someone to love Someone to love (yeah, yeah) Beth McKenzie got the job of her dreams Retouching photos for a magazine aimed at teens It's Thursday night, she should be out on the scene But she's sitting at home watching "The King of Queens" There's something wrong that she can't describe She takes the contacts out of her eyes Sets the alarm for 6:45 So she can get a little exercise When it's late (when it's late), and it's hot (and it's hot) And an hour in the shower is the best that you've got Don't give out (don't give out), don't give up (don't give up) One of these nights you might find someone to love Someone to love (yeah) Someone to love Someone to love (yeah, yeah) And you're not the only one who's lonely And you're not the only one who's lonely Oh Seth Shapiro is trying in vain To hail a taxi in the morning in the pouring rain Beth McKenzie sees one just up ahead She cuts in front of him and leaves him for dead Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, yeah, yeah Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh (someone to love) Oh-oh, oh-oh, yeah, yeah Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh (someone to love) Oh-oh, oh-oh, yeah, yeah Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh (someone to love) Oh-oh, oh-oh, yeah, yeah Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh
