lyrics

I put a contact-ad in the local magazine
I felt so band almost escaped in my vocal limousine
And I received some letters of some men in their thirties and fourties
And I’m only 25, but I think I’m really tolerant towards people in the thirties
And people in the fourties and to those who were born in the seventies.

And I replied with a letter to a letter that I liked
Of a guy who didn’t seem to have a telephone-number.
I’m not really into phone-calls, but three days later he really called,
And we exchanged some words and we organized a so called, a so called

Ref:
blind date – three hours
Talking of nervous nothing
Blind date Three hours
Talking ‘bout nervous nothing

He had a coffee and about thirteen cigarettes
I had one coffee
And a sparkling water with lemon
And we were talking
And I was talking and I was talking
And I was walking
Quickly away afterwards.

Refrain again!!

And while we were sitting at this table in that café
I couldn’t forget about that imaginery shield above our table
what said: this is a blind date;
these two awesome people meet for a blind date,
an embarrassing blind date,
an unromantic blind date
oh my goodness,, those two people, they are so lonesome,
‘cause this is a blind date!!
