I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know Praying for love and a lap dance And paying in naivety One, two, three One, two, three One, two, three Well I'm afraid that I Well I may have faked it And I wouldn't be caught dead D-dead, d-dead, d-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 Isn't this exactly where you'd like me? I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know Praying for love and 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 and a lap dance And paying in naivety Praying for love and paying in naivety Praying for love and paying in naivety, oh
