Lyrics
His common knowledge is always one exception
Not quite part of the crowd
He tries so hard just to laugh in the right places
But he knows it's just not funny
He has this feeling, he just knows it
They don't like him 'cause he's different
He knew all about the no-go areas
Still, he went there on his own
He was washed up and left for dead
Nobody told him he was just not wanted
It gets so cold after midnight, oh yeah
Don't want the money, he just wants the fame
There's something driving him insane
His friends don't like him 'cause they think that he's so stupid
So he just goes out on his own
He saw a movie that night and it moved him
It was just like his life story
But he got jumped by some thugs on the way home
No one came to his rescue
He was washed up and left for dead
Nobody told him he was just not wanted
It gets so cold after midnight, oh yeah
Night after night, he's out fighting the bad man
Hear the trans tappin' for the groove
He can't dance, but he can struggle
He can struggle, yeah
Ooh
Washed up and left for dead
Nobody told him he was just not wanted
It gets so cold after midnight, oh yeah
Take your partners for the last tango
And doble
His common knowledge is always one exception
Not quite part of the crowd
He tries so hard just to laugh in the right places
But he knows it's just not funny
He saw a movie that night and it moved him
It was just like his life story
But he got jumped by some thugs on the way home
No one came to his rescue
Hey
It'll soon be time to be out on the streets again
