Dark in the Spotlight Songtext
von Steve Conte

Well you′re a medical wonder
you're no Johnny Thunders
but you kept up quite a pace
Always severely high
and you didn′t die tryin'
Well, lord knows it ain't no race

Somehow you stayed out of the headlines,
the who′s-nearly-dead-lines,
guess ya missed out on the press
Then on the scene ambles
some baby in shambles
and now that crown of infamy′s been passed

I can see it's
dark in the spotlight
one taste sets the stage right

Dark in the spotlight
make it strong on a weak night
it′s still the same old song,
Is this where you belong?


Though you're a self confessed fool,
no celebrity death pool
is gonna make a buck on you
Turn up your distortion,
the fame and misfortune
and you still haven′t got a clue

When everyone rallied around you
They left how they found you
you wasn't begging for change
And now that you′re older
you find that they're c-colder
they waste no time when love is all in vein

Can't you see it?
Dark in the spotlight
get ya some make you feel right

Feeling dark in the spotlight
turn you on for an off night
Now you think you′re thinking clear
well, you got your gear

Oh, yeah
Woo hoo!
Woo hoo!

Yeah yeah
It′s dark in the spotlight
just a taste set the stage right


Feeling dark in the spotlight
keep it strong on a weak night
It's still the same old song
you′re right where you belong
Hey, now, Can you turn me on?
