From the bar to the bedroom I'm swimming in the neon Lighted pictures of a redhead, plasticoated hot on And sometimes when that mirror shows The smile of disbelief Stained signature of nightmares They're stolen by the thief
I'm back on the borderline Yes I'm back on the borderline
By the end make a bet and only place is laminex Laugh a lot cry a lot salt and pepper supper sex And sometimes when that magic of the moment Fails the test In retrospect that diamond day Did not make second best And sometimes when a thousand voices Tell you that you're wrong A saint in any form Becomes a sinner all along
