Chorus

Standing in line to see the show tonight

And there's a light on, heavy glow

By the way, I tried to say

I'd be there waiting for

Dani, the girl, is singing songs to me

Beneath the marquee, overload

Verse 1

Steak knife, card shark

Con job, boot cut

Skin that flick, she's such a little DJ

Get there quick by street but not the freeway

Turn that trick to make a little leeway

Beat that nic, but not the way that we play

Dogtown, blood bath

Rib cage, soft tail

Chorus

Standing in line to see the show tonight

And there's a light on, heavy glow

By the way, I tried to say

I'd be there waiting for

Verse 2

Black jack, dope dick

Pawn shop, quick pick

Kiss that dyke, I know you want to hold one

Not on strike but I'm about to bowl one

Bite that mic, I know you never stole one

Girls that like a story, so I told one

Song bird, main line

Cash back, hard top

Chorus

Standing in line to see the show tonight

And there's a light on, heavy glow

By the way, I tried to say

I'd be there waiting for

Dani, the girl, is singing songs to me

Beneath the marquee, oversold

By the way, I tried to say

I'd be there waiting for

Bridge

Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it

Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it

Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it

Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it

Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it

Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it

Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it

Ooh, ah

Chorus

Standing in line to see the show tonight

And there's a light on, heavy glow

By the way, I tried to say

I'd be there waiting for

Dani, the girl, is singing songs to me

Beneath the marquee, oversold

By the way, I tried to say

I know you from before

Outro

Standing in line to see the show tonight

And there's a light on, heavy glow

By the way, I tried to say

I'd be there waiting for
