Now I'm of consenting age
Em F
To be forgetting you in a cabaret
Am
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen
Em F
May even ask my name
Am
As she sheds her skin on stage
Em F Am
I'm sitting and sweating to a dance song on the club's PA
Em
And the strip joint veteran sits two away
F Dm F Em
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime
F
Daiquiri
Am C F
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
Dm F
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
Em Dm
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
Am C F
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
Dm F
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Em Dm
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
