Lyrics

When I say this was no game of chicken You were aiming at your best friend (You wear) switchblade on a chain around your neck Wandering down in Mexico from your dad And its daddy on the booze And its Brando on the ice And now it's Dean in the doorway With one more way he can't play this scene twice And you drug her down every drag (and your little fit of love) And tell her stand up (tall when you man kissed it to you darling) That's not how you were thinking How could a Natalie Wood not get sucked into a scene so custom touched Hey look who shows up In the same place In this case I think it's better We belong together We belong together Once Johnny the King made a spit ring And all the skid kids see this very proud man And he entwines her in his fingers And then lay there Climb upon the rooftop docks out on the crosstown seas When he wraps his jacket across her shoulders Foes and foreigner hugs her and holds her on his knees But a sailor ain't gonna takes her down to the dark end of the fair And turn her into a tattoo And whisper Into the back of Johnny's black hair And now Johnny the King walks these streets without her in the rain Lookin' for a leather jacket And a girl who wrote her name forever A promise We belong together Could we belong together Shall we wait along these streets young lions on the lam Are the signs you hid deep in your heart Left on the neon for them Well, they are fools No they are victims The sailors and the ducky boys Who move into your own eyes and your own lips and your own tear, your own street Listen, Bird, we have to tell them And they turn and ignore us Our only heroes we have are written before us Our only angel who look at us watches through each other's eyes And I can hear him In every footstep's passing sigh And he goes crazy these nights Watching heartbeats go by And they whisper to me Yes We belong together (bae-bae, baby) We belong together, yeah But we belong together
