Alley Cat

I've got a broken heart and a broken smile
When I fall I get up even if it takes a while
Seeking shelter in the ghost of Elvis
And all of the magic michael left this world
And I ain't leaving if I know that
Sometimes, I drive on the wrong side
Somehow I'm terrified
Some days I will stay inside to cover that I've cried
Being twice as sorry because I've lied

Such a sad looking clown
In a world upside down
Astray in the alleys of this town
There's but one little sun
Where she can safely run
When she comes undone

(Baby)
Oh baby, let me stay your alley cat
You're my wire to the light, and my spark here in the still of the night
(Baby)
So baby let me stay, where I'm at
In your sight I always feel alright

I'm right where I don't want to be
And it's a mystery how the will to fit in is makin' me a hole in history
As long as I'm alive I won't be free

Sometimes, I'm left on the ouside
Somehow, I got no pride
Some days I am trying to survive without colide
With an empty jacket by my side

Such a sad looking clown
In a world upside down
Astray in the alleys of this town
There's but one little sun
Where she can safely run
When she comes undone

(Baby)
Oh baby, let me stay your alley cat
You're my wire to the light, and my spark here in the still of the night
(Baby)
So baby let me stay, where I'm at
In your sight I always feel alright

Why me, I'm trying to find a way to erase and rewind
Help me face my fears
Stay pulling strings my dear, rule me like a puppeteer
