Stay Lyrics - Joe Jackson

Here darkness never quite descends 

Only the toughest stars 

Hang with neon friends 

Over neon candy stores 

Till the bitter end 

Oh madness 

Waits for me someday 

Raising a champagne glass 

Down some dark alleyway 

Down some mean magnetic street 

Stopping me to say 

You could live anywhere you want to 

Give me one reason to stay 

Here monsters walk the earth again 

Mermaids in black and gold 

Perfume and cocaine 

Rising from a teeming sea 

Asking me again 

You could have anyone you want to 

Give me one reason to stay 

I think I'll stay
