Babysitters of the World Unite! Lyrics

Cassie take me dancing
It's been a lonely week
We'll take the 109 past the c**e sign
To where the black crew and the big city reefs
Well I'll be David Johansen
and you can be my brand new lead
We'll swing all night, 'neath the big strobe light
'til there's blisters on my feet
And then love will call a time
When the charms of the world are all mine
Where we just sweetly grin, and we woke up singing alone, singing alone
Way back before all the signs turned faded and hazy
Before I became so jaded and lazy
The one sad day you awoke to discover, you were wasting your time with a fool for a lover
A fool for a lover (x2)
Who's trading your love for the dreams of another

Don't take the first train home on me
make a run before the morning sun
Oh so stiff and sore from the hard dance floor
We're reminded, that we're not 21 anymore
Like the girl waiting back at home, with the cut key to our front door
Passed out on a chair with a streak in her hair
Her home run, spread out across the floor
Dreaming of life in the light
Where everything works out right
Oh its a life where a dance can save a romance overnight, overnight
The issue in ten years of running the same conversation
Leaves your soul aching alone
Would she wake up shocked and ashamed to discover that the years rolled by losing love after lover?

Will she wake up shocked and ashamed to discover?
All the time, putting up walls in between one another
Across the white grey land and the sky up above her
All over the world people crying to each other, and we're wasting my life, with a fool for a lover
A fool for a lover
Just a fool for a lover
That's right
You traded your love for the dreams of another

Dont sit, don't you let it show, don't tell your babysitter it's best she doesn't know

Don't cry, don't let her discover, that the years roll by losing love after lover

Uh don't cry, dont let you show, don't tell the babysitter man it's best she doesn't know

Don't cry, don't let her discover, that we all wake up ashamed to discover, that we're wasting our time with fools for lovers, for lovers.
