Out Go the Lights

You walk into the ballroom like
The call for wind and rain was right
And all them heads went left to right
Then out went the lights
It was a break in time
I know your mechanisms
You became like that
On which your heart was fixed
Before I knew what was which
Out went the lights
There's a picture of you
Standing there in my black wig
Looking like who thinks they know who
Standing there in my black wig
I can't hear the noise
You always looked good that way
You were the one-two punch from Illinois
If you lean any harder
That window breaks at the bump
And when that light turns back again
You will remember the way
They fall for you like a brick
Oh, but nobody knows you
Knows you when you're down or kicked
Out go the lights
Never see that kind of poise
You always looked good that way
You were the one-two punch
You always looked good that way
