I was scared of dentists and the dark

I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations

Oh, my friends are turning green

You're the magician's assistant in their dreams

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh, they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide

Taken away to the dark side

I wanna be your left hand man

And I love you when you sing 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'd like

This guy decides to quit his job and

Heads to New York City

This cowboy's running from himself

Ah, he's been living on the highest shelf

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh, they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide

Taken away to the dark side

I wanna be your left hand man

And I love you when you sing that song and

I got a lump in my throat 'cause

You're gonna sing the words wrong

I just wanna, wanna know

If you're gonna, gonna stay

I just gotta, gotta know

I can't have it, I can't have it any other way

I just wanna, wanna know

If you're gonna, gonna stay

And I just gotta, gotta know

Oh, I can't have it, I can't have it any other way

Swear she's destined for the screen

Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen

Lady, running down to the riptide

Taken away to the dark side

I wanna be your left hand man

And I love you when you sing that song and

I got a lump in my throat 'cause

You're gonna sing the words wrong

I got a lump in my throat 'cause

You're gonna sing the words wrong
