Dead Ringer For Love

BOY: Every night I grab some money
And I go down to the bar
I got my buddies and a beer
I got a dream, I need a car

You got me begging on my knees
C'mon and throw the dog a bone
A man he doesn't live by
Rock 'n roll and brew alone

Baby baby

Rock 'n roll and brew
Rock 'n roll and brew
They don't mean a thing
When I compare 'em next to you

Rock 'n roll and brew
Rock 'n roll and brew
I know that you and I
Oh, we got better things to do

I don't know who you are or what you do
Or where you go when you're not around
I don't know anything about you baby
But you're everything I'm dreaming of

I don't know who you are
But you're a real dead ringer for love
A real dead ringer for love

GIRL: Ever since I can remember
You been hanging 'round this joint
You been trying to look away
But now you finally got the point

I don't have to know your name
And I won't tell you what to do
But a girl, she doesn't live
By only rock 'n roll and brew

Baby baby
Baby baby

BOTH: Rock 'n roll and brew
Rock 'n roll and brew

BOY: They don't mean a thing
When I compare 'em next to you

BOTH: Rock 'n roll and brew
Rock 'n roll and brew

BOY: I know that you and I
Oh, we got better things to do
I don't know who you are or what you do
Or where you go when you're not around

GIRL: I don't know anything about you baby

BOTH: But you're everything I'm dreaming of

GIRL: I don't know who you are

BOTH: But you're a real dead ringer for love
A real dead ringer for love

BOY: Ooh, you got the kind of legs that do more than walk

GIRL: I don't have to listen to your whimpering talk

BOY: Listen, you got the kind of eyes that do more than see

GIRL: You got a lotta nerve to come on to me

BOY: Oh, you got the kind of lips that do more than drink

GIRL: You got the kind of mind that does less than think

But since I'm feeling kinda lonely
And my defenses are low
Why don't you give it a shot
And get it ready to go

I'm looking for anonymous
And fleeting satisfaction
And I want to tell my daddy
I'll be missing in action

Ever since I can remember
I've been hanging 'round this joint
My daddy never noticed
Now he'll finally get the point

BOY: You got me beggin' on my knees
C'mon and throw the dog a bone
A man he doesn't live
By rock 'n roll and brew alone

Baby baby
Baby baby

BOTH: Rock 'n roll and brew
Rock 'n roll and brew
I know that you and I
Oh we got better things to do

Rock 'n roll and brew
Rock 'n roll and brew
They don't mean a thing
When I compare 'em next to you

GIRL: I don't know who you are

BOY: Or what you do

GIRL: Or where you go

BOY: When you're not around

GIRL: I don't know anything about you baby

BOY: But you're everything I'm dreaming of

BOTH: I don't know who you are
But you're a real dead ringer for love
A real dead ringer for love
