When they turn the lights out Faces in the shadow When they turn the latch in, Tapping at your window Skinny up out of your bedroom Shimmy up on the drainpipe Stand tall in the rooftop And let slip into the night Would you surrender to despair? Or go on as if you're unawares? Would you let 'em tear apart you mind? Or would you come running with our kind? Tell me what would you do? If I told you That they lied to you, And all the things they said Just wasn't true? Tell me what would you do? Swing Baby! And they'll hate you for what you are boy, And they'll say you oughtta be ashamed
