Am
Now I'm of consenting age
Dm
To be forgetting you in a cabaret
Am
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen
Dm
May even ask my name
Am
As she sheds her skin on stage

I'm sitting and sweating to a dance song on the club's PA.
Dm
And the strip joint veteran sits two away
G D F
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri...

And paying in naivety OhhhhhhOoOoOo
