[verse] Pretty little lady under the sidewalk light A familiar smile folding shadows into night I call out hey babe like I already know her name She drifts past me slow, I'm just part of the frame [pre-chorus] My heart ticks loud, takes the sting like a burn Nobody mocks Mr. Alvin P. Malvern So I flip the grin, play the joker in a show Throw something sharp just to try and steal control [chorus] I shout See ya next Tuesday with a grin Half a dare, half a prayer riding under my skin She stops, she leans, she takes it in, then smiles Turns my clumsy line into a Sunday style She's Mrs. Saturday Night and she owns the light Mrs. Saturday Night, But nothing feels right [verse] Wind in her hair keeps time with her step The city holds its breath while I forget All the tidy lines and the rehearsed heart One quiet look and the whole act falls apart [pre-chorus] I meant to be brave, I meant to be loud Lost my swagger in the hush of the crowd Now I'm stepping back from the joke I made Her laugh wraps round me like a hand grenade [chorus] I shout See ya next Tuesday with a grin Half a dare, half a prayer riding under my skin She stops, she leans, she takes it in, then smiles Turns my clumsy line into a Sunday style She's Mrs. Saturday Night and she owns the light Mrs. Saturday Night, still NOTHING feels right [bridge] Maybe I'm foolish, maybe I'm brave Maybe her silence was the song she gave I take back my words like a boy with a scar She's a comet passing by in a Stolen car [chorus] I shout See ya next Tuesday with a grin Half a dare, half a prayer riding under my skin She stops, she leans, she takes it in, then smiles Turns my clumsy line into a Sunday style She's Mrs. Saturday Night and she owns the light Mrs. Saturday Night, damn she put's up a fight She's where do you get off saying horrible things ? You sound like a jail birdy with dirty clipped wings [outro] Pretty little lady drifting out of sight I whisper maybe I'll find her next Saturday night Or not I mean There are other nights In the week Sigh [Fade Out]
