It Seemed Like A Good Idea At The Time Lyrics - Linda Lewis

Don't ask me why I did it, 

It seemed like a good idea at the time. 

There were no other amusements or games to play 

To pass the night away. 

Don't ask me why I did it 

I must have been lonely stupid or blind, 

But I know that it seemed like a good idea at the time. 

 

It was 3 a.m. in the casino 

I was feeling like the Sportsman of the Year 

So I blew a little money on the roulette wheel, 

And I taught myself to play Chemin de fer. 

 

Don't ask me why I did it, 

It seemed like a good idea at the time. 

There were no other amusements or games to play 

To pass the night away. 

Don't ask me why I did it 

I must have been lonely stupid or blind, 

But I know that it seemed like a good idea at the time 

 

As the dawn came round on Monte Carlo, 

I had lost the car and safe deposit key, 

The country house in Switzerland was mine no more, 

And the gendarme at the door said "c'est la vie!"
