After the Prince and the Showgirl Lyrics
You've gotta be hard
If you gonna get her
Don't leave her scarred
All dead, all betterYou've gotta remember
To do it all right
Turn the lights off
Lock it up tightDon't you walk on the grass
And don't leave any clues
Better wash off your glass
And wipe the mud off your shoesToo much information
Just gets 'em going
Down at the station
Don't want 'em knowingDon't stop to wonder for too long
Just make sure there's something
That she likes on the radioWhen duty calls
Miss Niagara falls
But when they ask me
I'll just say that I didn't knowWhen will you call?
(Well, after it's over)
Are you sad at all?
(I don't even know her)Don't let it hurt
(I'll be fast)
I feel so bad
(It won't last)When you get back
(I'll be clean)
And please, don't say
Anything meanBut you've gotta dress nice
Try not to upset her
Just a little advice
If you're gonna get herDon't stop to wonder for too long
Just make sure there's something
That she likes on the radioDrive by the bank
And check on the tank
And when they ask me
I'll just say, "I didn't know"But you've gotta dress nice
'Cos that makes it better
Just a little advice
If you're gonna get her
