Nighttown Boy

Horslips


Don't try to play the fool
That's not my game.
You know I came because I'm cool.

Silver keys are in my hand.
They open doors
To worlds that you won't understand.

Big girls should never cry.
Caught red-handed's
not the time to come on shy.

False face against your door
I'm calling back
Just after dark,to steal some more.

Cos I'm a little Nighttown Boy
And I bet that you can't satisfy
A little lonely Nighttown Boy
Who might try to make you cry
With the hint of romance in his eye.
A little lonely Nighttown Boy.

Nighttown Boy don't need no invitation
He gets his lovin' on the run.
Nighttown Boy don't need no confrontation
You call it kicks but he calls it fun.
Never try to stare me down.
You may have cash
But I've got flash,I've been around.
Some say we're easy meat.
But Nighttown Boys
Can slip and slide on graceful feet.
