Lyrics

[Chorus]
Standin' in line to see the show tonight, and there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way, I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
Dani, the girl, is singin' songs to me beneath the marquee
Overload
[Verse 1]
Steak knife
Card shark
Con job
Boot cut
[Verse 2]
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 "Nik", but not the way that we play
[Verse 3]
Dogtown
Blood bath
Ribcage
Soft tail
[Chorus]
Standin' in line to see the show tonight, and there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way, I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
[Verse 4]
Black jack
Dope dick
Pawn shop
Quick pick
[Verse 5]
Kiss that dyke, I know you want to hold one
Not on strike, but I'm about to bowl one
Bite that mic, I know you never stole one
Girls that like a story, so I told one
[Verse 6]
Songbird
Mainline
Cash back
Hard top
[Chorus]
Standin' in line to see the show tonight, and there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way, I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
Dani, the girl, is singin' songs to me beneath the marquee
Oversold
By the way, I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
[Bridge]
Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it
Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it
Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it
Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it
Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it
Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it
Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it
Ooh, ah
[Chorus]
Standin' in line to see the show tonight, and there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way, I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
Dani, the girl, is singin' songs to me beneath the marquee
Oversold
By the way, I tried to say I know you
From before
[Outro]
Standin' in line to see the show tonight, and there's a light on
Heavy glow
By the way, I tried to say I'd be there
Waiting for
