I was scared of dentists
and the dark
I was scared of pretty
girls and starting
conversations
oh all my friends
are turning green
You're the magician's
assistant in their dream
Ah hooo ooh ooh
Ah hooo oh
and they come unstuck
Lady running down
to the riptide
taken away to the
dark side I wanna be
your left hand man
I love you when you're
singing that song and I
got a lump in my throat
'cause you're gonna sing
the words wrong
There's this movie
that I think you'll like
This guy decides
to quit his job and
heads to New York City
this cowboy's running
from himself
And she's been living
on the highest shelf
Ah hooo ooh ooh
Ah hooo oh
and they come unstuck
Lady running down
to the riptide
taken away to the
dark side I wanna be
your left hand man
I love you when you're
singing that song and I
got a lump in my throat
'cause you're gonna sing
the words wrong
I just wanna
I just wanna know
If you're gonna
If you're gonna stay
I just gotta
I just gotta know
I can't have it
I can't have it
any other way
I swear she's destined
for the screen
Closest thing to
Michelle Pfeiffer
that you've ever seen oh
Lady running down
to the riptide
taken away to the
dark side I wanna be
your left hand man
I love you when you're
singing that song and I
got a lump in my throat
'cause you're gonna sing
the words wrong
Lady running down
to the riptide
taken away to the
dark side I wanna be
your left hand man
I love you when you're
singing that song and I
got a lump in my throat
'cause you're gonna sing
the words wrong
Lady running down
to the riptide
taken away to the
dark side I wanna be
your left hand man
I love you when you're
singing that song and I
got a lump in my throat
'cause you're gonna sing
the words wrong yeah
I got a lump in my throat
'cause you're gonna sing
the words wrong
