After The Prince And The Showgirl Lyrics - Rough Dreams - Shivaree

You've gotta be hard 

If you gonna get her 

Don't leave her scarred 

All dead, all better 

You've gotta remember 

To do it all right 

Turn the lights off 

Lock it up tight 

Don't you walk on the grass 

And don't leave any clues 

Better wash off your glass 

And wipe the mud off your shoes 

Too much information 

Just gets 'em going 

Down at the station 

Don't want 'em knowing 

Don't stop to wonder for too long 

Just make sure there's something 

That she likes on the radio 

When duty calls 

Miss Niagara falls 

But when they ask me 

I'll just say that I didn't know 

When will you call? 

(Well, after it's over) 

Are you sad at all? 

(I don't even know her) 

Don't let it hurt 

(I'll be fast) 

I feel so bad 

(It won't last) 

When you get back 

(I'll be clean) 

And please, don't say 

Anything mean 

But you've gotta dress nice 

Try not to upset her 

Just a little advice 

If you're gonna get her 

Don't stop to wonder for too long 

Just make sure there's something 

That she likes on the radio 

Drive by the bank 

And check on the tank 

And when they ask me 

I'll just say, "I didn't know" 

But you've gotta dress nice 

'Cos that makes it better 

Just a little advice 

If you're gonna get her
