Now I'm of consenting age to be forgetting you in a cabaret. |
|
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen may even ask my name |
|
As she sheds her skin on stage |
|
I'm seated and sweating to a dance song on the club's P.A. |
|
The strip joint veteran sits two away |
|
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri |
|
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me |
|
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know |
|
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety |
|
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me |
|
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know |
|
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety |
|
But, but I'm afraid that I |
|
Well, I may have faked it |
|
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place |
|
Well, I'm afraid that I |
|
Well, that's right, well I may have faked it |
|
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place |
|
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me |
|
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know |
|
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety |
|
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me |
|
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know |
|
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety |
|
Well, I'm afraid that I |
|
Well, I may have faked it |
|
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place |
|
Well, I'm afraid that I |
|
Well, that's right, well I may have faked it |
|
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place |
|
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me |
|
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know |
|
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety |
|
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me |
|
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know |
|
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety |
|
Praying for love and paying in naivety |
|
Praying for love and paying in naivety, oh |
