Standing in line at the grocery

Staring back at the trash magazines

Martians say earth girls are lonely

Well that's no news to me

In the parking lot I saw two cowboys

Fighting for a handicapped space

So what is a girl to do now boys

To make sense of this place

There's too much wrong in the world tonight

Too much I can't understand

I wanna board up these windows

And turn out these lights

And lie down with an innocent man

Lie down with an innocent man

I don't need a strong man's protection

I don't want a faithless man's love

Just a little respect and affection

Would be more than enough

Cause I've been shot down by love's aimless arrows

And I've shot a few wild ones myself

But these days the choices are narrow

And you've got to aim well

There's too much wrong in the world tonight

Too much I can't understand

I wanna board up these windows

And turn out these lights

And lie down with an innocent man

Lie down with an innocent man

I've been holding my heart like a lantern

Looking out for just one honest face

All the noise out there won't matter

If I can trust in just one quiet place

There's too much wrong in the world tonight

Too much I can't understand

I wanna board up these windows

And turn out these lights

And lie down with an innocent man

Lie down with an innocent man
