Small Paradise
Written by John Mellencamp
Two veteran lovers french kiss in the doorway
Their ears are cold but their hearts are so warm
A country band playin' down the street just a little ways
They're whiskey wild, they keep it up until dawn
CHORUS:
Small Paradise
I glad to see everything's alright with you
Alright then hold me tight - kiss me
Small Paradise
A neon sign blinks outside in the pouring rain
It's ladies night free drinks until 10
Some people walk on by, hey girl don't
I know you, won't you come on in
Well it ain't love but it ain't bad
CHORUS
CHORUS
Swing of the Axe
Tedium is Overcome
From obscurity, through melody
And when I'm blind it helps me
See through your key
No one can touch, no need to rush
Presented by my alibi
When I'm down it brings me round
So easily
At eight o' clock I take my leave
And when I'm done and dusted
Tonight I'm gonna be
I'll be a Karaoke queen, it's not me you see
I'm gonna take you down to a place
I know you'd rather be
It's just a three minute song
It doesn't last very long
But It'll take you to a place I know you'd rather be
Hey you can dance
Oooh sha la la
From obscurity, through melody
And when I'm blind it helps me
See through your key
No one can touch, no need to rush
Presented by my alibi
When I'm down it brings me round
So easily
At eight o' clock I take my leave
And when I'm done and dusted
Tonight I'm gonna be
I'll be a Karaoke queen, it's not me you see
I'm gonna take you down to a place
I know you'd rather be
It's just a three minute song
It doesn't last very long
But It'll take you to a place I know you'd rather be
Hey you can dance
Oooh sha la la
