Songtext von But It's Better If You Do

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 PA 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?

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, d-dead, d-dead, d-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
