a nice boy like me

walkin' around

uptight

and lookin' for noise

frantic on a friday night

just one of the boys

phony defenses

they fall in my way

a case of hot fire turnin' to stone

just a wind up poet with a chip on his shoulder

meetin' saturday mornin' alone

won't you tell me what's a nice boy like me

doin' in a place that never closes?

i can hardly hear ya'

holy moses

lookin' so sad

just tell me what's a nice boy like me

doin' by the dance floor after hours?

dozin' over rolls of whiskey sours?

feelin' so bad

i'm feelin' so bad for me

lost in the crowd

alone

and drinkin' my third

i'm hungry for company

but i can't think of the words

watchin' the girls

my heart in my hands

what a misplaced

pitiful sight?

just a stiff upper lip who'll be knowin' tomorrow

what he shoulda been sayin' tonight!

wontcha' tell me what's a nice boy like me

doin' in a place that never closes

i can hardly hear ya' holy moses

lookin' so sad

now won't you tell me what's a nice boy like me

doin' by the dance floor after hours?

dozin' over rolls of whiskey sours

feelin' so bad

i'm feelin' so bad for me

watchin' the girls

my heart in my hands

what a misplased

pitiful sight?

just a stiff upper lip who'll be knowin' tomorrow

what he shoulda been sayin' tonight

and tell me what's a nice boy like me

doin' in a place that never closes

i can hardly hear ya'

holy moses

lookin' so sad

now won't you tell me what's a nice kid like me

doin' by the dance floor after hours

dozin' over roll of whiskey sours

feelin' so bad

i'm feelin' so bad for me
