Stolen Car

Late at night in summer heat. Expensive car, empty streetThere's a wire in my jacket. This is my tradeIt only takes a moment, don't be afraidI can hotwire an ignition like some kind of starI'm just a poor boy in a rich man's carSo I whisper to the engine, flick on the lightsAnd we drive into the nightOh the smell of the leather always excited my imaginationAnd I picture myself in this different situationI'm a company director, two kids and a wifeI get the feeling that there's more to this one's lifeThere's some kind of complication, he tells her he's aloneSpends the night with his lover, there's a trace of her cologneAnd the words of his mistress, as she whispers them so nearStart ringing in my earPlease take me dancing tonight I've been all on my ownYou promised one day we could its, what you said on the phoneI'm just a prisoner of love always hid form the lightTake me dancing, please take me dancing tonightI imagine his wife, she don't look nothing like a foolShe picks the kids up form some private schoolShe remembers what he told her, he was late and worked aloneBut there's more than a suspicion in this lingering cologneAnd the kid's just won't be quiet and she runs a traffic lightAnd she drives into the nightPlease take me dancing tonight I've been all on my ownYou promised one day we could it's what you said on the phoneI'm just a prisoner of love always hid from the lightTake me dancing, please take me dancing tonightSo here am I in a stolen car at a traffic lightThey go form red to green and so I just drive into the nightPlease take me dancing tonight I've been all on my ownYou promised one day we could it's what you said on the phoneI'm just a prisoner of love always hid from the lightTake me dancing, please take me dancing tonight
