Standing In For Joe
XTC I'm standing, standing in for Joe Joe called round to ask me, Would I do a favor? While he's gonna be out of town He says his girl needs company, she gets so restless Would I keep her safe and sound? Softly, softly in the night Why, you can guess the rest... Now these shoes fit all too well Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe I'm standing Joe said we've been friends so long That I would be the one he would trust with his life And now those words roll 'round my brain As darkness falls, as I turn out his bedroom light Who could resist her tender charms? So the story goes... This actor he plays all the parts Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe I'm standing Love is like a river, You cannot stop its flow... Mmm hmm Joe called round to ask me, Would I do a favor? While he's gonna be out of town He says his girl needs company, she gets so restless Would I check that she's safe and sound? Softly, softly in the night Why, you can guess the rest... Now these shoes fit all too well Standing in for Joe I'm standing in for Joe I'm standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe Standing in for Joe - Gonna |
