LYRICS
Now I'm of consenting age to be forgetting you in a cabaret.
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen may even ask my name
As she sheds her skin on stage
I'm seated and sweating to a dance song on the club's P.A.
The strip joint veteran sits two away
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety

But, but I'm afraid that I
Well, I may have faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

Well, I'm afraid that I
Well, that's right, well I may have faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety

Well, I'm afraid that I
Well, I may have faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

Well, I'm afraid that I
Well, that's right, well I may have faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety

Praying for love and paying in naivety
Praying for love and paying in naivety, oh

    I can't believe they were all so young but had such a great discography.
  • @ad8d802
    Over a decade later and this whole album still slaps. I can’t listen to this particular album too much or I genuinely get emotional
  • @anistyme
    the transition between this song and I write sins not tragedies is so smooth
  • @ShrekYesJuuliet
    Is anyone gonna talk about the fact that when this video was made, Brendon wasn't even at the legal age to go to a strip club?
  • @chrivison
    The lyrics for this song were extremely mature for a teenager.
  • @Charlezard.
    This song is 16 years old? Damn. Sounds about right though. It was their first song I ever heard. Back in the good old pre-Jersey Shore days on MTV when there were wild music videos.
  • @mpaul2732
    beebo: im of consenting age also beboo: 17 when this song was made
  • @nashybearh
    Why is no one talking about Brendon's accent in the beginning // his acting skills? -
  • @raheelshayaan
    this man had no glow up cause he was always good looking
  • @Shayscribble
    Christ, I miss Brendon's voice bringing Ryan's lyrics to life. 💞
