Roman Orgy For One

I’m lying in the bathtub and the water’s turning pink
I’ve got the very best champagne on icecubes in the sink
It’s funny how the bubbles make it hard for you to think
When you’re having a roman orgy for one

You’ll read it in the papers, maybe see a photograph
I hope I don’t look funny when they find me in the bath
They’ll see me with no clothes but after all that’s how it goes
When you’re having a roman orgy for one

It’s really quite surprising but I’m not in any pain
I hope I have enough time left to finish the champagne
I hope you get this letter but there’s no way to explain
Why I’m having a roman orgy for one

You’ll wonder why I did it, maybe even shed a tear
I can’t begin to tell you how I needed you right here
But every time I ‘phoned some woman said you weren’t at home
So I’m having a roman orgy for one

I guess you realise that life is really all a game
You win a few and lose a few it all turns out the same
and pretty soon I’m sure you won’t remember my last name
So I’m having a roman orgy for one

I’m getting rather sleepy so this is goodbye my friend
the folks back home will tell you they think I was round the bend
But I know what I’m doing and I loved you till the end
And I’m having a roman orgy for one
mmmmmmmmm
