Standing in line

To see the show tonight

And there's a light on

Heavy glow

By the way I tried to say

I'll be there

Waiting for

Dani the girl

Is singing songs to me

Con job

Boot cut

Skin that flick

She's such a little DJ

Get there quick

By street but not the freeway

Turn that trick

To make a little leeway

Beat that nic

But not the way that we play

Dog town

Blood bath

Rib cage

Soft tail

Standing in line

To see the show tonight

And there's a light on

Heavy glow

Not on strike

But I'm about to bowl one

Bite that mic

I know you never stole one

A story so I told one
