People say that I'm high class

But I'm low down all the while

People think that I'm crazy

When I flash that California smile



But I can still paint the town

All the colours of your evening gown

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

To turn grey



People say I'm a drinker

But I'm sober half the time

People say I'm a loser

But I get lucky on the side



Yeah but I can still paint the town

All the colours of your evening gown

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

To turn grey



All my life I waited for

Someone who would show me where the bliss is

All my life I waited for

Someone who would take me past the kissing



People say I'm a loner

I like to get lost in the crowds

People call me a dresser

I wear my sports clothes way too loud



Yeah but I can still paint this town

I can shake it and turn it upside down

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

To turn grey
