Madam Eve

Out of my way - I don't care what you say
I - I don't care
I call you up - but, you're never there
I - I don't care
I need a friend and you're turning away again
I - I don't care
I've got my band and a winning hand
You - you understand ...

Madam Eve
Tell me why's this all happenin' for me
Light your candles - deal out your cards
Madam Eve
Right where we are

Well, I can't fight your tarot's true light
I - I don't care
This dark night, the future is bright
Yeah - just like your stare
I'll full pursue these things that you view
'Cause, I - I know I can
I've got my band and a winning hand
You - you understand ...

Madam Eve
Tell me why's this all happenin' for me
Light your candles - deal out your cards
Madam Eve
Right where we are
 

Yeah, that red satin garter on your thigh
Builds this young boy up - it drives me wild
Got your message the first time you smiled
I wanna be your midnight starchild ...
Wanna be your midnight starchild ...

Out of my way - I don't care what you say
I - I don't care
I call you up - but, you're never there
I - I don't care
I need a friend and you're turning away again
I - I don't care
I've got my band and a winning hand
You - you understand ...

Madam Eve
Tell me why's this all happenin' for me
Light your candles - deal out your cards
Madam Eve
Right where we are

Right where we are ...

Right where we are ...

She takes it -----
