Lyrics

[al:Hot Fuss (Limited Edition)]
[00:00.750] Michael plays with stars
[00:04.990] Soul Sister won't you take a ride in his car
[00:13.500] Late to call
[00:15.670] When you wanted to be all
[00:20.130] Baby baby don't be so shy
[00:24.910] Rock children hold your heads up high
[00:30.610] In the night while I try
[00:34.860] And tell the ballad of Valentine
[00:39.510]
[00:44.550] You got it bad, but you know it's true
[00:48.640]
[00:48.780] I caught up with a friend in Dallas
[00:53.90] We took a trip to New Orleans
[00:58.70] Those black-eyed ladies
[01:02.600] Won't say they're sorry
[01:07.710]
[01:07.980] We finally caught a train to Memphis
[01:12.860] Where everybody talks the same
[01:17.840] Those blue suede babies
[01:22.640] All know my name
[01:25.240]
[01:25.440] And I said hold tight
[01:29.830] Can't you see that it's hurting me
[01:34.470] But I've got the buzz
[01:38.640] Like Marlon Brando
[01:41.950] Michael Valentine, can't we unite?
[01:49.979]
[01:51.90] We ended up in North Dakota
[01:55.580] Although my heart's in Mexico
[02:00.520] (spanish language) My munequita
[02:04.300] Abre Tus Ojos
[02:09.990]
[02:10.190] With your new suit, and your black tie
[02:15.20] Hold on, you're just a gambling man, all proper like
[02:19.290] I broke to the right and I caught your eye
[02:25.90] Shut your mouth and wave goodbye
[02:29.740] Tonight, I ain't gonna let you rain on this parade
[02:35.480]
[02:38.230] And I said hold tight
[02:42.600] Can't you see that it's hurting me
[02:47.400] But I've got the buzz
[02:51.690] Like Marlon Brando
[02:54.290] Straight faced with misery tonight
[03:02.70]
[03:02.240] And I will not lie when I say I ain't cold no more
[03:11.500] But I've got the buzz
[03:16.0] Like Greta Garbo
[03:19.10] Walking forward to the sun
[03:23.550] And I've got a cold tale left to write
[03:32.0] Well uh oh
[03:32.310]
[03:33.850] I know he's gonna be there tonight
