But It's Better If You Do 

Now I'm of consenting age to be forgetting you in a cabaret. 
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen may even ask my name 
As she sheds her skin on stage 
I'm seated and sweating to a dance song on the club's P.A. 
The strip joint veteran sits two away 
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri 

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know 
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety 
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know 
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety 

But, but I'm afraid that I 
Well, I may have faked it 
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place 

Well, I'm afraid that I 
Well, that's right, well I may have faked it 
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place 

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know 
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety 
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know 
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety 

Well, I'm afraid that I 
Well, I may have faked it 
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place 

Well, I'm afraid that I 
Well, that's right, well I may have faked it 
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place 

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know 
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety 
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know 
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety 

Praying for love and paying in naivety 
Praying for love and paying in naivety, oh
