Shake like Judy says
To a potent melody
Shake off and forget
On her anniversary
So things don't return to hurt you anymore
Shake like Judy dies
Till you don't shake anymore.

Do as Judy does
And you won't go short of fun
Things won't look so bad,
When you're friends with everyone
Does it hurt as if you heart is clean in two?
Well do as Judy does
And you'll feel as good as new.

Everything, everything
Will appear to gang up on you
It's hard to keep your balance when the past is on parole.
Anything, anything
Can take your mind of those useless troubles
So organise a bunch mindless tonics for your soul.

When all that lies ahead is another dismal day
Speak out, speak out loud
Until your lungs give way.
Show them all the way
To your wedding day
Run like Judy does
From a distant memory
Find out it's yourself
That's the perfect company
So do like Judy does
When sorrow's cutting deep
You either do these things
Or you cry yourself to sleep

Cry yourself to sleep
Shake a little
Shake like Judy does
Like she does so well
Then I cry myself to sleep
Put my head in my hands and I weep
To that distant memory
She's out on her balcony
Staring out to sea
And she never thinks about me
That's when I shake like Judy does
And then I cry myself to sleep
