The name was faded out
And the lights were dim
It was a cold, cold night
The duvet crowd was in
I was a nervous wreck
In fact I was unclean
I switched the coin-op on
To purify my jeans
Then I saw her standing there
My heart went in a spin
At the Swiss launderette
On another frozen Thursday night
At the Swiss launderette
I've been waiting for her all this time
The machines go rou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou-nd
At the Swiss launderette
Then the manager said
Son, you gotta go home
No, you can't stay here
This is a germ free zone
But don't you understand
Can you help me please
'Cause she just disappeared
And left me incomplete
An eternity of shirts and sheets
And now I can't forget
At the Swiss launderette
On another frozen Thursday night
At the Swiss launderette
I've been waiting for her all this time
The machines go rou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou-nd
At the Swiss launderette
Swiss launderette
The never ending spin repeat
That girl I cant forget
No
Swiss launderette
On another frozen Thursday night
At the Swiss launderette
I've been waiting for her all this time
The machines go rou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou-nd
At the Swiss launderette
I keep waiting for her
Just waiting for her
At the Swiss Launderette
Oh, Swiss Launderette
So there you go
That's about it
It's just another story
From a freezing cold Thursday night
Down at the Swiss launderette
