Am
Now I'm of consenting age
Bm F
To be forgetting you in a cabaret
Am
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen
Bm F
May even ask my name
Am
As she sheds her skin on stage
Bm F Am
I'm sitting and sweating to a dance song on the club's PA.
Bm
And the strip joint veteran sits two away
F Bm D F
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime 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
Am G
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
Am G
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
