Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Comin' home from work one day
I stopped in at the store
Lady next to me in line
Guess 'bout 84
She looked so sweet and innocent
I had to say, "Hello and how are you?"
[Verse 2]
She said, "Well, dear, when you get to my age
Things start drooping at this stage
I mean me eyesight's not what it used to be
So me knitting had to stop, you see
And it's hard to move with a plastic hip
Dr. James removed this thing from me lip
The fluid retention takes its toll
I mean, I really do have bladder control"
[Chorus]
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry
Sorry I asked how you were doing
I was really only trying to be polite
Sorry I asked, I never realized
That you would be complainin' half the night
I was just makin' conversation
That's just too much information
Sorry I asked
[Verse 3]
Runnin' late to catch a plane
I stopped to get some fuel
There behind the counter
Was a girl I knew in school
I really had no time to spare
Still I said, "Hello and how are you?"
[Verse 4]
She said, "Well, Charlene's 5 now and Scott's 13
He's a mongrel child, if you know what I mean
If his father would just take control
But the lazy bastard's on the dole
But I love his mullet and his flannelette shirt
And he's good to me 'cause he lets me work
He and Mum don't see eye to eye
So we're movin' out to give his mum a try"
[Chorus]
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry
Sorry I asked how you were doing
I was really only trying to be polite
Sorry I asked, I never realized
That you would be complainin' half the night
I was just makin' conversation
That's just too much information
Sorry I asked
[Verse 5]
My best friend knew a guy from work
Sent us on a blind date
Said that he was made for me
Believed that it was fate
When we met, he looked so fine
I had to say, "Hello and how are you?"
And he said, "Well, my third wife's taking me to court
She wants the house that my first wife bought
I lost five hundred bucks at the T.A.B.
What do you know about declaring bankruptcy?
My oldest son's nearly up for parole
But the ute runs great with the parts he stole
But you're not as ugly as I feared
This is the first date I've had since the rash has cleared"
[Chorus]
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry
Sorry I asked how you were doing
I was really only trying to be polite
Sorry I asked, I never realized
That you would be complainin' half the night
I was just makin' conversation
That's just too much information
Makin' conversation, that's just too much information
Sorry I asked
Sorry I asked
[Outro]
Is this eight items or less, dear?
Charlene, get back up at the counter, please
You not supposed to be at work?
You gonna cook me breakfast or what?
