| I saw you walking down the street you were new
|
| My heart it nearly skipped a beat and I knew
|
| You were not the lovin' kind — too cool
|
| And I curse the you were mine — so cruel
|
| He was an ego in the night
|
| A perfect plastic coated knight
|
| Wherever he goes he’s so right
|
| He was an ego in the night
|
| In the night
|
| And when I looked into your eyes — like ice
|
| I was tryin' to socialise — being nice
|
| Promises of paradise sounded good
|
| Trust me to realise it’s no good
|
| He was an ego in the night
|
| A perfect plastic coated knight
|
| Wherever he goes he’s so right
|
| He was an ego in the night
|
| In the night
|
| And the way he wears his hair
|
| Sure to make the women stare
|
| And the game plays he knows
|
| As the passing ego flows
|
| He was an ego in the night
|
| He was an ego in the night |
