(Matraca Berg Gary Harrison)I go to work from 10:30 until 6 a.m.Raking up those dimes and quartersSlinging eggs and hamScrambled, poached, or over easyCoffee black and strongJukebox of scratchy recordsI play 'em all night longEternal blue neon, we're never closedWhen the world is asleepDarling, come take a seatYou can always eat at Joe's (eat at Joe's)Here comes old Frank Taylor, smelling like old ginGuess his wife couldn't get him soberIt's up to me againHere's a hot top on your coffeeHoney, you're a messI ain't your wife, I ain't your mommaBut I'll do, I guessEternal blue neon, we're never closedWhen the world is asleepDarling, come take a seatYou can always eat at Joe's (eat at Joe's)Hello, Prince Charming, where are you, dear?When will you come in and order biscuits here?Truck drivers, musicians with no place to goI can be your domestic goddessFor an hour or soEternal blue neon, we're never closedWhen the world is asleepDarling, come take a seatYou can always eat at Joe's (eat at Joe's)
