I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green
You`re the magician`s assistant in their dreams

Uh ooh ooh oooh
Uh ooh ooh and they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you`re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat because
You`re gonna sing the words wrong

There`s this movie that I think you`ll like
This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City
This cowboy`s running from himself
And she`s been living on the highest shelf

Uh ooh ooh oooh
Uh ooh ooh and they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you`re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat because
You`re gonna sing the words wrong

I just wanna, I just wanna know
If you`re gonna, if you`re gonna stay
I just gotta, I just gotta know
I can`t have it, I can`t have it any other way
I swear she`s destined for the screen
Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you`ve ever seen, oh

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you`re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat because
You`re gonna sing the words wrong

Oh lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you`re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat because
You`re gonna sing the words wrong

Oh lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you`re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat because
You`re gonna sing the words wrong
I got a lump in my throat because you`re gonna sing the words wrong
