[Verse 1: Kevin Godley]
A lost weekend
No beginning, no end
Were you walking, was I running?
Is it here, or is it coming soon?
Thanks a lot

[Chorus: Sarah Vaughan]
Oh, I wish you well
Friends or lovers, who can tell?
When the dust finally has settled
Will I be left with roses or with nettles?
Oh, whatever happened on that lost weekend?

[Verse 2: Kevin Godley]
A lost weekend
No beginning, no end
Are we the rust upon the metal
Or the ghosts of folks who never settled down?
Thanks a lot

[Chorus: Sarah Vaughan]
Lost in heaven, lost in hell
Only time will tell
When the book finally is written
Just our luck, the last page will be missing
Oh, whatever happened on that lost weekend?
