On the Strip lyrics

[Verse 1]

Every time you look my way

You shine a light in what you say

Every time you look my way

You talk a rhyme called purple haze

[Chorus]

Close your eyes and pretend

You're not at all a black friend

[Verse 2]

A smile-less girl on the strip

You really learn just how to be hip

Tell your stories 'bout your crazy trip

Messing with stars and doing tricks

[Chorus]

Close your eyes and pretend

It started all back then

[Verse 3]

Big glass house on the hill

Doing dope but did you swear

Yesterday was buried last year

While i don't care i thought was clear

[Chorus]

Close your eyes and pretend

This is how it should end

[Verse 4]

Cinderella of the night

Doesn't know her left from right

She so hungry for a bite

Forget your friends for a big night

Don't you know who's keeping score

Who's that barking at your door

[Bridge]

Hold tight with fear, a little bit

Hold tight with fear, a little bit

Hold tight with fear, a little bit

Hold tight with fear

That was then, this is now [x2]

[Verse 5]

Every time you look my way

Remember a girl who used to say

Hold me tight any way

It's okay it's only play

[Outro]

I will remember in my dawn

What i came for, for a lark
