I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
All my friends are turning green
You're the magician’s assistant in their dreams

Ohooooooooh oohh oh oh oooh oh and they come unstuck

Lady running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat cos you gone and sing the words wrong

Here's this movie that I think you’ll like
This guy decides to quit his job and head to New York City
This cowboy's running from himself
And she's been living on the highest shelf

Ohooooooooh oohh oh oh oooh oh
And they come unstuck

Lady running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat cos you gone and sang the words
I just wanna, I just wanna know
If you're gonna If youre gonna stay
I just gotta I just gotta know
I know I can't have it any other way
I swear she's destined for the screen
Closest thing to Michelle pfifer that you've ever seen oh

Lady running down to the riptide, taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you’re singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat cos you gone and sing the words wrong

Lady running down to the riptide, taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you’re singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat cos you gone and sing the words wrong
