Dance 'Til the Morning Light

There are things in my wallet I will never use I'm the 51st member of a god awful group Connected by rain, they say we're all the same But I don't know, I don't know if they're telling the truth Like a field of rice, I've grown out of view An Olympian came to fill the shoes you knew Oh he could reach the sockets that I could never twist So now you can cross me off that god damn list [Chorus] Cause there's always that someone who'll be easier on your eyes So forget the politics of living alone and just dance 'til the morning light I saw you in the background the other day On a television to some story grey You were sad on the steps of the new courthouse Spinning that wheel, you said you'd show me how You chased me through the carriage on the train But I reached the next one before you came I pulled out the pin between yours and mine I kept going, you got left behind [Chorus] I heard you were looking for a man to lead I can tell you that I'm not the one you need I'm always three steps behind the dance and the times So if I can't change for you, then I won't change for me Oh as stubborn as it is, as stubborn as I am I can tell you that there is no pearl in this clam A diamond maybe, I stole it, see But it was only to try and get you home with me [Chorus]
