My Old Flame

My old flame
I can't even think of her name
But it's funny now and then
How my thoughts go flashing back again
To my old flame

I've met so many who had fascinating ways
A fascinating gaze in their eyes
Some who took me up to the skies
But their attempts at love were only imitations of
My old flame
I can't even think of her name
But I'll never be the same
Until I discover what became of
My old flame

My old flame
I can't even think of her name

I have to look through my collection of human heads
But it's funny now and then
How my thoughts go flashing back again
To my old flame
My old flame
My new lovers all seem so tame
They won't even let me strangle them!
For I haven't met a girl so magnificent or elegant
As my old flame

I've met so many who had fascinating ways
A fascinating gaze in their eyes
I saw this eye, so I removed the other eye
That eye that kept winking and blinking at other men
It was me, I was... it was... it was... it was...
Some who took me up to the skies
But their attempts at love were only imitations of

My old flame
I can't even think of her name

What was her name?
Doris, Laura, Chloe, Minnie, Moe, Jack
No, it couldn't have been Moe
I can't stand it, I tell you
This is driving me sane!
She would always treat me mean
So I poured a can of gasoline
And struck a match to
My old flame
