Alice - Mott The Hoople[00:00:00]

Now Alice needed money I put $10 on the breeze[00:00:17]

As the wind died away she sank way below her knees[00:00:21]

And as a hurricane passed by[00:00:25]

She clutched the money from the sky[00:00:27]

She must have been at least a fathom high[00:00:30]

She works the 42nd beat on 42nd street[00:00:34]

With all her golden ambitions[00:00:38]

And dead rhinestones in her feet[00:00:40]

And when a stranger said she sucked[00:00:42]

She just smiled believing luck[00:00:44]

As she climed into his truck to make a buck[00:00:46]

Oh my god she's running round the trees[00:00:51]

Said she couldn't touch them[00:00:55]

Because they're so real[00:00:57]

Alice you remind me of Manhattan[00:01:02]

The seedy and the snaz[00:01:06]

The shoeboys and the satins[00:01:07]

Like a throne made of gilt[00:01:09]

That too many johns have sat in[00:01:12]

Oh I got my eyes on you[00:01:14]

Now keep a watch on your watch[00:01:22]

And a watch on her watch[00:01:25]

'Cause if you ain't too careful[00:01:27]

He's gonna kick you in the crotch[00:01:29]

And you're out in the cold[00:01:31]

And you know that you've been rolled[00:01:33]

And the cops don't even stop and you feel old[00:01:35]

See Alice really liked you[00:01:40]

But you stayed a while too long[00:01:42]

Now she wants you to forget it[00:01:44]

And come back before too long[00:01:46]

But make it quick if you could[00:01:48]

She's gonna star in Hollywood[00:01:49]

The producer seems to think she's kinda good[00:01:52]

Me and my camera eyes sitting on a fence[00:01:57]

Laughing at the lights of New York City[00:02:01]

Alice you remind of Manhattan[00:02:07]

The seedy and snaz the shoeboys and the satins[00:02:11]

Like a throne made of gilt[00:02:15]

That too many johns have sat in[00:02:17]

Oh just come over[00:02:20]

ROLL UP[00:02:59]

See Alice on the palace[00:03:00]

Where her name adorns the boards[00:03:01]

Ain't no flash in her Cannes[00:03:04]

She got the willpower of a horse[00:03:05]

And it's a long way to Broadway from a 42nd lay[00:03:08]

Or is it really just a couple of blocks away[00:03:12]

Now I wonder if she wonders[00:03:16]

If I wonder if she wonders[00:03:18]

About the times I put her down[00:03:20]

When she seemed to be right under[00:03:22]

She told me morals are traditions[00:03:24]

Contradictions superstitions[00:03:26]

See Alice is always based on split decisions[00:03:29]

Me and my stupidity sittin' on a fence[00:03:33]

And digging what I thought was New York City[00:03:37]

Oh Alice you remind me of Manhattan[00:03:43]

The seedy and snaz the shoeboys and the satins[00:03:47]

Like a throne made of gilt[00:03:51]

That too many johns have sat in[00:03:53]

Oh I like you[00:03:55]

Yeah Alice the lights were meant for you[00:03:59]

Your weaknesses successful[00:04:04]

And your selfishness the clue[00:04:05]

You gotta lose what you get[00:04:08]

And for what you get you lose[00:04:09]

Oh I know it[00:04:11]

Oh Alice don't stop and think a minute[00:04:15]

Or your brain is gonna get ya[00:04:19]

Drop your heart right in it[00:04:21]

And you're a shooting star[00:04:24]

And you'll die if you don't win it[00:04:25]

Yeah[00:04:30]

You didn't make the book[00:05:02]
