The North Pole Lyrics
Maybe, it's not good and it's not bad
And maybe, that's a problem that we have
'Cause everybody knows
Everybody knows
I've seen you with your new boyfriend
It's funny how you look at him
I know we won't be seeing him again
'Cause everybody knows
That's the way it goes
And everybody knows
Your Monday morning train takes you uptown
Your Friday evening bus brings you back down
I've seen you with your new boyfriend
It's funny how you look at him
I know we won't be seeing him again
Everybody knows
Aw, everybody knows
Your Monday morning train takes you uptown
Your Friday evening bus brings you back down
It's times like these that you say you want help
That's all we seem to ever talk about
So here's what they're saying
I'm sincerely yours
And maybe, that's a problem that we have
'Cause everybody knows
Everybody knows
It's funny how you look at him
I know we won't be seeing him again
'Cause everybody knows
That's the way it goes
And everybody knows
Your Friday evening bus brings you back down
It's funny how you look at him
I know we won't be seeing him again
Everybody knows
Aw, everybody knows
Your Friday evening bus brings you back down
It's times like these that you say you want help
That's all we seem to ever talk about
I'm sincerely yours

I thought I knew what this song was about. But look at the title! What does it mean!?
I think the title is just a way of saying what a cold person his ex-girlfriend is. Fairly straightforward lyrics, the propulsive rhythm and emotive singing is what makes this tune a classic.
He sees her in a new relationship, and he's not impressed. He can tell that even she is not impressed with the new guy. He doesn't expect to be seeing more of him. He expects her to come crawling back, and when that happens, he knows he'll take her back in spite of everything. But he's feeling cold and bitter as fuck right now.
Missed a couple of lines before the ending:
Your Monday morning train takes you uptown Your Friday evening bus brings you back down It's times that these that you say you want out That's all we seem to ever talk about
So here's what they're saying I'm sincerely yours
