Thom Quick - Camera's On! Lyrics

May I introduce myself
I'm just like all the others
You are the picture of perfect health
Could you be my lover

Is that how you express yourself
Your special way to tease me
Is it love or money
Are you there to please just me

Camera's on
She dances for the nation
Camera's on
Another night in the same situation

The ball and chain inside me
My iron-clad agreement
My wife has all my secrets
Locked up with her key

The bar-keep pours another round
See how he smiles discretely
If my wife comes here, I'll never be found
'Cause I have his trust completely

Camera's on
She dances for the nation
Camera's on!
Another night in the same situation

She says she can't stand another day
Pursued by Mr. Lonely
With kids to feed, it's the only way
For her to make enough money

The bouncer bounces another bum
The owner is a voyeur
And since his wife has left him
He's selling his daughter

So on and on, and night after night
I'm searching for an answer
But I'll go home and turn out the lights
To be with my private dancer

Camera's on
She dances for the nation
Camera's on
Every night it's the same situation
