Out Go The Lights
You walk into the ballroom like
The cough, the wind, the rain was right
And all them heads went left to right then out went the lights
It was a break in time, I know your mechanism
And you became like that on which your heart was fixed
Before I knew what was which out went the lights
There's a picture of you standing there in my black wig
Looking like who thinks they know who
Standing there in my black wig
I came here for the light
You always looked good that way
You with the one-two punch from Illinois
If you lean any harder that window breaks at the bump
And when that light turns back again you will remember the way
They fall for you like a brick, oh, but nobody loves you
Or woos you when you're down or kicked
Out go the lights, never see that kind of poise
You always looked good that way
You with the one-two punch
You always looked good that way
