Rainy night in the city
And you saw the lights
What a pity
It started in a movie queue
You got me drunk
You got me stoned
You had me talking and thinking
Like a clone
You fed me lies
And you knew why
But when the lights came on
You left me high and dry

Chorus:
Up against the wall
(You had me)
Up against the wall
Up against the wall
(Now I got you)
Up against the wall

You showed me how to boogie
You showed me how to swing
And when I asked the question
You showed me how to sting
You had me screwed
You had me creamed
You had me living in a pigeon hole of someone else's dream
You made me laugh
You made me cry
But when the lights came on
You left me high and dry

(chorus)
