I've got a broken heart and a broken smile 
When I fall I get up even if it take a while 
Seeking shelter in the ghost of Elvis 
and all of the magic Michael left this world 
And I ain't leaving even if I know that 
Sometimes I drive on the wrong side 
Somehow I'm terrified 
Some days I will stay inside to cover that I've cried 
Being twice as sorry because I've lied 

Such a sad looking clown 
In a world upside down 
Astray in the alleys of this town 
There's but one little sun 
Where she can [bad word] 
When [bad word] undone... 

Oh baby let me stay your alley cat 
You're my wire to the light 
And my spark here in the still of the night 
So baby let me stay where I'm at 
In your sight I always feel alright 

I'm right where I don't want to be 
And it's a mystery 
How the will to fit in is making me 
hole in history 
And as long as I'm alive I won't be free 
Sometimes I'm left on the outside 
Somehow I've got no pride 
Some days I am trying to survive when I collide 
With an empty Jackie by my side 

Such a sad looking clown 
In a world upside down 
Astray in the alleys of this town 
There's but one little sun 
Where she can [bad word] 
When [bad word] undone... 

Oh baby let me stay your alley cat 
You're my wire to the light 
And my spark here in the still of the night 
So baby let me stay where I'm at 
In your sight I always feel alright 

Why me? I'm trying to find 
way to erase and rewind 
Help me face my fears 
Stay pulling strings my dear [bad word] me like a puppeteer... 

Oh baby let me stay your alley cat 
You're my wire to the light 
And my spark here in the still of the night 
So baby let me stay where I'm at 
In your sight I always feel alright
