Standing in line at the grocery Staring back at the trash magazines Martians say earth girls are lonely Well that's no news to me
In the parking lot I saw two cowboys Fighting for a handicapped space So what is a girl to do now boys To make sense of this place
There's too much wrong in the world tonight Too much I can't understand I wanna board up these windows And turn out these lights And lie down with an innocent man Lie down with an innocent man
I don't need a strong man's protection I don't want a faithless man's love Just a little respect and affection Would be more than enough
Cause I've been shot down by love's aimless arrows And I've shot a few wild ones myself But these days the choices are narrow And you've got to aim well
There's too much wrong in the world tonight Too much I can't understand I wanna board up these windows And turn out these lights And lie down with an innocent man Lie down with an innocent man
I've been holding my heart like a lantern Looking out for just one honest face All the noise out there won't matter If I can trust in just one quiet place
There's too much wrong in the world tonight Too much I can't understand I wanna board up these windows And turn out these lights And lie down with an innocent man Lie down with an innocent man
