LYRIC FOR SALE

Let me in
Let me in
Let me in
I’m on the outside looking in
Let me in
Let me in
Let me in
I’m on the outside looking in

Something going down in the city tonight
Beautiful things beneath neon light
Beautiful people in beautiful places
Lipstick lips and painted faces
Here in the city tonight
Yeah here in the city tonight
OWWWW, OWWWW
Here in the city tonight

The drummer counts off, two, three, four
Rumbling sound hits the dance floor
High heeled shoes, sexy tight pants
Strutting their stuff looking for romance
Down in the city tonight
Yeah down in the city tonight
OWWWW, OWWWW

Let me in
Let me in
Let me in
I’m on the outside looking in
Let me in
Let me in
Let me in
I’m on the outside looking in
OWWWW

Your serpentine smile gives you a shot
Never satisfied with what you’ve got
Got the money, got the looks
Eagle talons shaped like hooks
Someday baby you’ll lose those looks
Yeah baby you’ll lose those looks
Then you’re on the outside looking in
Crawling the city’s dirty backside
The fallen city’s fallen bride

Let me in
Let me in
Let me in
I’m on the outside looking in
Let me in
Let me in
Let me in
I’m on the outside looking in

Alone in the crowd, the crowd your death shroud
I hear your loneliness clear and loud
Open your eyes, drop the disguise
Hold out a hand together we’ll rise
But I’m on the outside looking in
I’m on the outside
Deep in the dirty city’s dirty backside
I’m on the outside looking in
OWWWW, OWWWW
Outside looking in

Let me in
Let me in
Let me in
I’m on the outside looking in
Let me in
Let me in
Let me in
I’m on the outside looking in
Let me in
Let me in
Let me in
I’m on the outside looking in
Hold out a hand
Hold out a hand
I’m on the outside looking in.
