No for an answer
R.Gerritsen/B. Hay
Annie had a bad dream, gets a glass of water
Listens to the rain battering the gutter
Lights herself a cigarette and she’s trying to remember
There’s nothing but darkness and
The sound of stormy weather around her
Look at her, she’s so pretty, really, really pretty
When the lightning flashes bright, right all across her face
Aha, I gotta take her out tonight
I gotta make her laugh I gotta crack that smile
Aha, I gotta take her out tonight
Try to make her laugh, I gotta make it worthwhile
Annie’s sad today, Annie’s sad for keeps they say (4x)
Annie in front of the mirror staring at herself
While she’s trying out the colours
Blue and red and all the others
The black dress don’t fit her and
The white dress don’t flatter
Annie cannot make her mind up anymore
Shining tear in her eye, tiny tear in her eye
Annie’s scared and she don’t wanna know why
Aha, I gotta take her out tonight
I gotta make her laugh I gotta crack that smile
Aha, I gotta take her out tonight
Try to make her laugh, I gotta make it worthwhile
Annie’s sad today, Annie’s sad for keeps they say (4x)
Aha, I gotta take her out tonight
I gotta make her laugh I gotta crack that smile
Aha, I gotta take her out tonight
Try to make her laugh, I gotta make it worthwhile
Aha, I gotta take her out tonight
I gotta make her laugh I gotta crack that smile
Aha, I gotta take her out tonight
Try to make her laugh, I gotta make it worthwhile
