we were laughing like lizards at a practical joke   cause the cigarettes didn't taste like the brand we used to smoke   and the city shone bright like never before      you were Lou Marini, I picked Suzie Q   you said I had no style, but I could borrow some from you   and the night was a star-lit stage   and the crowd screamed for more, forgiven for sure      let's imitate life like a tv-star      so strange at night, I got lost in your cellophane eyes   so strange at night, this is a song for our wasted lives      we were sattillite dancers and go-go girls   the street was a river of indian pearls   I waved to the moon, smiling from the sleepy sky, to our sleepy high      if you break both legs, then still you would run   elope from the morning and hide from the sun   if this ever comes to an end, I'd lay down and cry   I'd surely die      let’s imitate life like a tv-star      so strange at night, I got lost in your cellophane eyes   so strange at night, this is a song for our wasted lifes      let’s imitate life like a tv-star      so strange at night, I got lost in your cellophane eyes   so strange at night, this is a song for our wasted lifes
