But it's alright, it's alright They only hear of the things that you know of And you're wishing one day you will soar So let's have a talk Like grownups do Let's do the things that grown folks do There's a lot of silly young girls wanna show off And

Darkness at the break of noon Shadows even the silver spoon The handmade blade, the child's balloon Eclipses both the sun and moon To understand you know too soon There is no sense in trying Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn Suicide remarks are torn

Drivin' in a slick black Cadillac It's got solid gold hubcaps It feels all right Feels all right It makes me feel like a king I only need one thing They're after me Slick black Cadillac Ooooo, just a big black set of wheels

Does it make you feel alive? Don't look back Live your life Even if it's only for tonight" I said, "hey, it's alright If it makes you feel alive" Can't contain it She said, "hey, it's alright My mother told me I should go and get some therapy

They say, Ruby you're like a dream Not always what you seem And though my heart may break when I awake Let it be so I only know, Ruby, it's you They say, Ruby you're like a song You don't know right from wrong And in your eyes I see heart aches for me

It's gonna be alright Through the darkest night This is a song - for the lonely Can you hear me tonight Can you hear this prayer When you're standing on the edge of nowhere There's only one way up So your heart's got to go there

There's a firefly loose tonight Better catch it before it burns this place down And I lie if I don't feel so right But the world looks better through your eyes Feeling like you won't believe And hold me tight, don't let me breathe It's only been one

Let it take you right down to your knees Sometimes the only way around it Is to let love do it's work Seven forty two in the morning Eight seconds before it all sinks in So let it hurt, let it bleed Let it burn to the worst degree May not be what you

Get your party right, it's a Friday night Lime on the rim of that dixie silver Smokin' up a faded out 4x4 I brought the songs and you brought the party Only one way to do it up right Everybody goes where eveybody knows That anything goes on a Friday

Drivin' in a slick black Cadillac It's got solid gold hubcaps It feels all right Feels all right It makes me feel like a king I only need one thing They're after me Slick black Cadillac Ooooo, just a big black set of wheels
