Well, another one of those weeks that started so promising, and then didn't really pan out. That's the way it goes sometimes when you stick with your first idea. A sassy song of female empowerment named for the neon signs at a strip club? Sure, that makes sense, right? Ah, well. And yeah, I may have knicked a Van Halen melody in the outro. Not sure. C'est la vie.
lyrics
You walked in like you own it
Baby, show what you got
You think you're so dangerous
But you ain't seen the likes of us
I do believe
Make yourself at home
Show's about to begin
All my sisters here with me
Nowhere that I'd rather be
Tonight
Well you can look for love in another's kiss
But you ain't never gonna see a show like this
This ain't no dress rehearsal, it's curtain time
It's gonna cost a lot but you can keep that dime
We got yr momma in a whirl
We got real live girls
All your lights in the city
Neon stars up above
But nothing shines like a Texas girl
You can keep your gold, give away your pearls
To the next one
Well you can look for love in another's kiss
But you ain't never gonna see a show like this
This ain't no dress rehearsal, it's curtain time
It's gonna cost a lot but you can keep that dime
We got yr momma in a whirl
We got real live girls
If you're still feeling lucky
You've got work to do
I wanna see some real respect
Or you're gonna get your feelings wrecked
Again
Well you can look for love in another's kiss
But you ain't never gonna see a show like this
This ain't no dress rehearsal, it's curtain time
It's gonna cost a lot but you can keep that dime
We got yr momma in a whirl
We got real live girls
