When I was young I was left to fend for myselfA latchkey leaves the door open for anyone elseI met the brothers behind Montgomery MallLaunching long fluorescent tubes up against the wallTake me there, take me thereOh, take me anywhereLet me be by your sideIn revoltLet me wear your overcoatWe fluttered junior high like a cloudgot grounded in tenth against a chain link fenceThey were sent away to trade school when summer setI got left once again to fend for myselfTake me there, take me thereOh, take me anywhereLet me be by your sideDon't say noLet me wear your overcoatShe rose Olympic from out of the poolThe pinking shears in her had bright like a daggerI stood before her in nothing but my overcoatSongtexteHeld up my sleeve torn and tatteredTake me there, take me thereOh, take me anywhereLet me be by your sideDon't say noLet me keep my overcoat Aus Songtexte Mania
