Claire monet de Screeching Weasel

Claire monet i heard someone say
it's been so long since the last time i heard her name
i learned a lot from her
yeah she was singular
the one day she got married
that's the last we saw of her
i can't remember her face at all
and i don't know why but claire monet i miss you
claire monet went away
i don't know how she could give up that lovely name
she was so slick and i fell sick
when i think about her playing house and raising kids
i'd rather think of her the way she was
maybe that's why claire monet i miss you
the funny part of it all
is i didn't know her at all
claire monet had lots to say
and i just can't imagine her all old and gray
she didn't need a man
maybe it was her plan
but if she couldn't go on being claire monet who can?
i get the feeling she just withered away
maybe that's why claire monet i miss you
