Shady Lane

Lyrics for Shady Lane

Blind date with the chancer, we had oysters and dry lancers And the check, when it arrived, we went Dutch, Dutch, Dutch, Dutch A redder shade of neck on a whiter shade of trash And this emery board is giving me a rash I'm flat out You're so beautiful to look at when you cry Freeze, don't move You've been chosen as an extra in the movie Adaptation of the sequel to your life A shady lane, everybody wants one A shady lane, everybody needs one Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God Oh, my God, oh, your God, oh, his God, oh, her God It's everybody's God, it's everybody's God It's everybody's God, it's everybody's God The worlds collide, but all that we want is a shady lane Glance, don't stare Soon you're being told to recognize your heirs No, not me I'm an island of such great complexity Stress surrounds In the muddy peaceful center of this town Tell me off In the hotel lobby, right in front of all the bellboys And the over-friendly concierge A shady lane, everybody wants one A shady lane, everybody needs one Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God Oh, my God, oh, your God, oh, his God, oh, her God It's everybody's God, it's everybody's God It's everybody's God, it's everybody's God The worlds collide, but all that I want is a shady lane
