Lyrics

Standing in line to see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
Dani the girl is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee
Overload

Steak knife
Card shark
Con job
Boot cut

Skin that flick, she's such a little dj
Get there quick by street but not the freeway
Turn that trick to make a little leeway
Beat that nic but not the way that we play

Dog town
Blood bath
Rib cage
Soft tail

Standing in line to see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for

Black jack
Dope dick
Pawn shop
Quick pick

Kiss that dyke, I know you want to hold one
Not on strike, but I'm about to bowl one
Bite that mic, I know you never stole one
Girls that like a story so I told one

Song bird
Main line
Cash back
Hard top

Standing in line to see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
Dani the girl is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee
Oversold
By the way I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for

Ooh ahh, guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh, guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh, guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh, guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh, guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh, guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh, guess you never meant it
Ohh ahh

Standing in line to see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
Dani the girl is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee
Oversold
By the way I tried to say I know you
From before
Standing in line to see the show tonight
And there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
