Waiting For An Alibi |
Valentino’s got a bookie shop and what he takes |
He gives for what he’s got |
And what he’s got he says he has not |
Stole from anyone |
It’s not that he don’t tell the truth |
Or even that he misspent his youth |
It’s just that he holds the proof |
But you know something’s wrong |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting for an alibi |
Valentino’s in a cold sweat, placed all his money on that last bet |
Against the odds he smokes another cigarette |
Says that it helps him to forget |
That he’s a nervous wreck |
It’s not that he misses much |
Or even that he’s lost his lucky touch |
It’s just that he gambles so much |
And you know that it’s wrong |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting just to catch your eye |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting for an alibi |
Just to say I told you I told you |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting just to get you |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting for an alibi |
Valentino got nowhere to go On his own like Romeo |
Blow by blow he watches his money go Now he’s oh so low |
It’s not that he misses her |
Or even that he can’t resist her |
It’s just that kissing her |
Can feel so strong |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting just to hold you |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting for an alibi |
Just to say I told you |
Waiting for an alibi |
Waiting for an alibi |
