I used to search for the ideal girl   The perfect little prettiness   I used to search for the ideal world   But frankly think it don't exist      So many times, I get so afraid   So many ways, I felt so betrayed   We get together on a Saturday night   And watch the whole world cave in      Little girl, I wanna know   What you look for in a man   Is he tall, tough and handsome   With a continental taint?      I just wanna be around   When the big world hits the ground   I don't wanna make a sound   When the sky comes tumblin'   Sky comes tumblin' down      I used to worry about the job that I had   I barely made enough to survive   But man, I'm worried about the life that I live   Sometimes I barely made it home alive      But now I don't need to worry   No need to rush, there's no need to hurry   You don't need a new job, you don't need a new wife   You don't need to go far in your life      Little girl, I wanna know   What you look for in a man   Does he have a lot of money   Even more than you can spend?      I just wanna be around   When the big world hits the ground   I don't wanna make a sound   When the sky comes tumblin'   Sky comes tumblin' down      I used to play in a dead end band   I always ended up on my own   But now I play in a skeleton band   Nothing but skin and bones      Oh no, I don't need sedation   I got my daily dose of radiation   We get together on a Saturday night   And watch each other's hair fall out      Little girl, I wanna know   What you look for in a man   Does he sell a lot of records   With his Californian band?      I just wanna be around   When the big world hits the ground   I don't wanna make a sound   When the sky comes tumblin'   Sky comes tumblin' down      I don't wanna make a sound   When the sky comes tumblin' down   I just wanna be around   When the big world hits the ground      I don't wanna make a sound   When the sky comes tumblin' down   I just wanna be around
