Lunch Hour lyrics
She gets an hour for lunch but if it comes to the crunch she can stretch it if you know what I mean.
She meets him at a hotel where they're not known very well cause they never stay beyond 2:15.
She does her make-up with care and runs a brush through her hair then grabs a cab back up to 3rd avenue.
And at a quarter to three her friends say "Oh my, oh me. Whatever you just had for lunch agrees with you! "
Chorus - Lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch your. How do you find time to eat? Well there are so many people on the street and all of them are hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry.
Hungry, Gimme a sandwich to go. Well as long as I can see you I know I'll never go hungry
He takes a drive everyday from Brooklyn to JFK because he meets a flight at noon from Montreal
And everyday he'll await outside of Canada's gate cause she's a stewardess connecting with St. Paul
And when his lady arrives they run for both of their live out to the Piper Club Motel that they call home.
Then back to terminal 2, she meets her husband anew. He is the navigator of a flight from Rome
... and its lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch your. How do you find time to eat? Well there are so many people on the street and all of them are hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry.
Hungry, Gimme a sandwich to go. Well as long as I can see you I know I'll never go hungry
No lunch. No brunch. I'll munch something on the run, dear.
East side, west side. Fast ride, lunch hour's begun here
No lunch. No brunch. I'll munch something on the run, dear.
East side, west side. Fast ride, lunch hour's begun here....
I'm on a 9 hour day. We sleep 8 hours away, work 9 to 5 with 60 minutes off. So when lunch hours begun we're really ready to run. It's on your mark, get down, get set. It's off!
Off to a table for 2. Off to a room with a view with someone new who you just barely know. You're really up for the date and you don't wanna be late but still you swear your watch is 60 minutes slow.
Is it lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour? How do you find time to eat? Well there are so many people on the street and all of them are hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry.
Hungry, Gimme a sandwich to go. Well as long as I can see you I know I'll never go hungry.
