Kingmaker - What Can You Do For Me Now? Songtexte

It was the time of night
And the band were just about to take the stage
I was trying to recall the first line of the first song
One of those days

I was drinking too much
Smoking too much
Hadn't phoned home in weeks
Someone had given her a backstage pass
And she pointed the finger at me

I once loved you, how?
Baby what can you do for me now
Words don't fail me now
Baby what can you do for me now

Last night I got my hard earned money
I know I had it in the bar
Now morning has broke and so am I
I gotta headache making me see stars

A girl was hangin' around
Caught me in the carpark
Said can I come home with you
She wasn't exactly Isobella Rosselini
But hey, what can you do....

You lifted me when I was down
Baby what can you do for me now
A cat went miaow, girl what couldn't you do for him now

I'm in a New York hotel lounge
Baby what can you do for me now
I don't look in your eyes I look down
Baby what can you do for me now
