Rupert Holmes - Lunch Hour Lyrics
She gets an hour for lunch but if it comes to the crunchShe can stretch it if you know what I meanShe meets him at a hotel where they're not known very well'Cause they never stay beyond 2:15She does her make-up with care and runs a brush through her hairThen grabs a cab back up to Third AvenueAnd at a quarter to three, her friends say "Oh-my-oh-me,Whatever you just had for lunch agrees with you"Lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hourHow do you find time to eat?Well, there are so many people on the streetAll of them are hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungryLunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hourGimme a sandwich to goWell, as long as I can see you, I knowI'll never go hungryHe takes a drive every dayFrom Brooklyn to JFKBecause he meets a flight at noon from MontrealAnd every day he'll awaitOutside Air Canada's gate'Cause she's a stewardess connecting with St. PaulAnd when his lady arrivesThey run for both of their livesOut to the Piper Cub Motel that they call homeThen back to Terminal 2She meets her husband anewHe is the navigator of a flight from RomeAnd it's lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hourHow do you find time to eat?Well, there are so many people on the streetAnd all of them are hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungryLunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hourGimme a sandwich to goWell, as long as I can see you, I knowI'll never go hungryNo lunch, no brunchI'll munch something on the run, dearEast side, west sideFast ride, lunch hour's begun hereI'm on a diet (No lunch, no brunch)You might try it(I'll munch something on the run, dear) Fast food and hot love(East side, west side) You can do itLong as you got love (Fast ride, lunch hour's begun here)We live on a nine-hour day (No lunch, no brunch)We sleep 8 hours away(I'll munch something on the run, dear)Work from 9 to 5 with 60 minutes off(East side, west side) So when lunch hour's begunWe're really ready to run(Fast ride, lunch hour's begun here)It's on your mark, it's down and set, it's off(No lunch, no brunch) Off to a table for twoOff to a room with a view(I'll munch something on the run, dear)With someone new who you just barely know(East side, west side) You're really up for the dateAnd you don't want to be lateBut still you swear your watch is 60 minutes slowIs it lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour?How do you find time to eat?Well, there are so many people on the streetAnd all of them are hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungryLunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hourGimme a sandwich to goWell, as long as I can see you, I knowI'll never go hungry
