Angie Baby lyrics

You live your life in the songs you hear

On the rock and roll radio

And when a young girl doesn't have any friends

that's a really nice place to go

Folks hoping you'd turn out cool

But they had to take you out of school

You're a little touched you know, Angie baby

Lovers appear in your room each night

And they whirl you across the floor

But they always seem to fade away

When your Daddy taps on your door

Angie girl, are you all right?

Tell the radio goodnight

All alone once more, Angie baby

Angie Baby, you're a special lady

Living in a world of make-believe

Well, maybe

Stopping at her house is a neighbor boy

With evil on his mind

'Cause he's been peeking in Angie's room

At night through the window blind

I see your folks have gone away

Would you dance with me today?

I'll show you how to have a good time, Angie baby

When he walks in the room, he feels confused

Like he's walked into a play

And the music's so loud it spins him around

'Til his soul has lost it's way

And as she turns the volume down

He's getting smaller with the sound

It seems to pull him off the ground

Toward the radio he's bound never to be found

The headlines read that a boy disappeared

And everyone thinks he died

'Cept a crazy girl with a secret lover

Who keeps her satisfied

It's so nice to be insane

No one asks you to explain

Radio by your side, Angie baby

Angie Baby, you're a special lady

Living in a world of make-believe

Well, maybe, well, maybe, well maybe
