You got your name in lights But they can't seem to spell mine right You sold a mil today Today I'm lucky if I get paid If I could get paid I'd survive another day Maybe if I could get played They'd know my name Your girls are fine it seems A dime or two in every dozen I only wanted one but I'm no one So I get nothing But all this nothing I've got Is all that's keeping me tough Maybe this thing I've got is enough Ch. When I'm alone and the lights go off I'm never sure if I can make it that far All that I know is I want those I want those I want those flashing lights...

When I'm alone and the lights go off I'm never sure if I can make it that far All that I know is I want those I want those I want those flashing lights... When you're all alone and the lights go off Did you always know that you would make it this far All that I know is I want those I want those I want those flashing lights...
