LYRICS:
‘Dim The Light’
© 2012, 2013 Craig Hallen/Adam Dauphin
V.1
You're honeycomb sweet
Been a pleasure to meet
Go home and get off the street, boy
Your flattery's nice
But take her advice
You're confusing your virtue with vice, boy
V.2
You remembered her name
All part of the game
So glad it made you taste again, boy
Luminous red
Engulfing the bed
Love and pleasure rushing to your head, boy
CHORUS:
But if it does it for ya, honey
She'll play the damsel to your knight
Just pretend it ain't for money
If it makes you feel polite
She'll even dim the light
She'll even dim the light
V.3
Fantasies flower
Then they grow sour
She’ll make them sweeter by the hour, boy
Pinstripe suits
And steel-cap boots
Red-blooded men, like you, in pursuit, boy
CHORUS:
So if it does it for ya, honey
She'll play the damsel to your knight
Just pretend it ain't for money
If it makes you feel polite
She'll even dim the light
She'll even dim the light

– SOLO –

She’ll even dim the light
She'll even dim the light
She’ll even dim the light
She’ll even dim the light
Oh yeah, she’ll even dim the light
She’ll even dim the light
