Danny Peck - The Stripper And The Homeless Guy lyrics
rate me
She was running in the rain felt everything was down the drain she could either go insane or try to live a lie she'd been dancing on the pole the lonely clowns they loved her show she always makes them feel at home while she was locked outside but if just one time we could close our eyes we could change the night we could paint the sky try and hold the world in the arms of love like a dreamer who canâ€t wake up he was living on the streets where the concrete hurts your feet if you haven't had enough to eat and got no place to go man how did it come to this? he lived for luck but then it quit left him nothing but the bits and pieces of his heart but if just one time we could close our eyes we could change the night we could paint the sky try and hold the world in the arms of love like a dreamer who canâ€t wake up how did it get so far? how did it go so wrong? and how do we keep going on? how do we do it baby? every night when she got off he was in the parking lot she threw a dollar in his cup and blew a smile his way he could see those angel wings caught up in these puppet strings he could see so many things but no one heard him say that if just one time we could close our eyes we could change the night we could make it right try and hold the world in the arms of love like a dreamer who canâ€t wake up how did it get so far? how did it go so wrong? and how do we keep going on? how do we do it baby? I'd like to say she quit her job I'd like to say that he found one and they both ran off in the sun but it never goes that way she's still dancing on the pole novacaine for lonely souls he's still sleeping in the cold he waits for her all day
