There's a dance tonight in New York State,
It's a night with hearts hurt.
And all the girls have their party dresses on,
the boys have their best shirts.
The girls come out and shoot 'em with those eyes.
The boys act all cool and steady now, they straighten their ties.
Because they're so sick of waitin'.
The girls come out and silently they choose,
Mary, why so timid, girl?
Jon, you got nothin' to lose.
And those lights of broadway,
Well they were flashing in 4/4 time.
And it added a bit of sanity,
To this walk with your hand in mine.
Yes, your hand was in mind.
The girls come out and shoot 'em with those eyes.
The boys act all cool and steady now, they straighten their ties.
Because they're so sick of waitin'.

you caught me staring
i caught you staring at me
but on the long cold walk home the only question was
"what did you see in me?"
in the eyes that divert their gaze
i'm so done with your lies
i'm so done with maneuvering your maze
do you feel it?
I know you feel it, I know
i tried to fall in love
but i got no pulse
and if i had half a mind i would leave you
i tried to fall in love
but i got no pulse
and if i had half a mind i would leave you alone
you put on your glasses and turned from the mirror
i said some things none of them were sincere
i said "oh you're such a sight"
oh i'm so excited
you did it cause you miserable
well why wasn't i invited?
do you feel it?
I know you feel it, I know
i tried to fall in love
but i got no pulse
and if i had half a mind i would leave you
i tried to fall in love
but i got no pulse
and if i had half a mind i would leave you alone

With 2 feet on the dashboard and a hand out the window,
she was sailing down the 417
she didn't know which way she was going or what fights she'd be fighting,
but the driver had only turned 16.
and I, well I heard you like dying on Saturday nights.
and I, well I heard you like giving all the boys a fright.
and I, well I know you won't call on me tomorrow,
so lay down your shadow.
it's dark but I'll still follow.
and outside the movie theater lie the hazard lights of a half drunk father,
he's waiting to pick up his first date daughter,
and he wonders why the world seems so wrong.
so he took the Queensway,
but he missed his exit home.
he looked at her with tears in his eyes and said
"I don't know where your mama what's me to go"
chorus
I'm losing faith in blondes,
I'm losing faith in the stereos,
I'm losing faith in god,
but I know he left this place a whole long time ago
