Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI Sitting in a nest of bad men Whiskey bottles piling high Bootlegging boozer on the west side Full of people who are doing wrong Just about to call up the DA man When I heard this woman singing a song A pair of 45's made me open my eyes My temperature started to rise She was a long cool woman in a black dress Just a 5'9" beautiful tall With just one look I was a bad mess 'Cause that long cool woman had it all Woo! I saw her head up to the table With a tall walking big black cat Well, Charlie said "I hope that you're able, boy 'Cause I'm telling you she knows where it's at" When suddenly we heard the sirens And everybody started to run I jumped down and across the table When I heard somebody shooting a gun Well, the DA was pumping my left hand And then she was a-holding my right Well, I told her "Don't get scared 'Cause you're gonna be spared" Well I've gotta be forgiven If I wanna spend my living With a long cool woman in a black dress Just a 5'9" beautiful tall Well, with just one look I was a bad mess 'Cause that long cool woman had it all Had it all, had it all Had it all, had it all Had it all, had it all |

If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep No light, no sound Nothing to eat, no books to read Making love with you Has left me peaceful, warm, and tired What more could I ask? There's nothing left to be desired Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe |

Dear Eloise, I am writing to say
A number of funny things I heard today I heard that he's left you and run off to sea Could be the best thing that's happened to me Writing a letter to make you feel better Sorry to hear that he left you that way I could have told you, he was much older So much older than you You rushed in blindly, he treated you kindly Until he found out what he could get from you You should have departed before he got started Now you've been burned just like I said you would Please read my letter closely It's beneficial too You must read in-between the lines A message you will see If you use your mind, you'll find I want you back with me Ba ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Writing a letter to make you feel better Sorry to hear that he left you that way I could have told you, he was much older So much older than you So much older than you So much older than you Dear Eloise, I am writing to say A number of funny things I heard today I heard that he's left you and run off to sea Could be the best thing that's happened to me |

If you could only see me
I know exactly where I am You wouldn't want to be me Oh, I can assure you of that I'm not the guy to run with 'Cause I'll throw you off the line I'll break you and destroy you Given time He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse It's plain to see it's hopeless Going on the way we are So even though I'd lose you You'd be better off by far He's not the man to hold your trust Everything he touches turns to dust In his hands Nothing he can do is right He'd even like to sleep at night But he can't All he touches turns to dust All he touches turns to dust All he touches turns to dust All he touches turns to dust I wish someone would find me And help me gain control Before I lose my reason And my soul He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse He's King Midas with a curse He's King Midas in reverse |

(Sylvester / Clarke / Hicks)
Out on the town kicking around feeling bluesy It's getting late I can't afford to be choosy Should be home and dry by now tried every trick in the book but Another night Saturday night and I'm losing Another night Saturday night and I'm losing The DJ plays a song from the past I remember I hold her tight in my arms she surrenders It's the same old record playing but it's a different girl that's swaying chorus As we move around the room whispering things with my eyes closed I feels that you're here Then the music stops I open my eyes My fantasy ends We're not even friends So leave me to catch my ride pay my fare on my way home The same thing every week on my own Next time around you might be there my luck might change but until then chorus |
