Dance, baby, dance They’re gonna give you all the cash in advance And from your hips you got a price tag selling romance Right away, you’re a natural Lined up for you All down the street, around the corner, in the queue And past the pub with all the vagrants and the booze As I’ll be sittin' playin' blues here on the piano for the drunk and the few Singin' our favorite tune They made a hooker out of you Hangin' out by an old streetlight A nip of gin to get you through the night Toss out a hook and hope you get a bite But you ain’t had a hit here lately They’re watchin' your fantasy Fade away into a broken dream Lie down with dogs and you’ll wake up with disease Oh, baby cant you see, ain’t been a genius here since 1932 You’d think that you were one of the few They made a hooker out of you I don’t know where I am But I’m alone and just a shell of a man Gave it all up for the one-night stand For the love of a fan’s adoration It rots you to the core It’ll steal your heart and soul, for sure Leave you feelin' unwelcome and on hell’s front door You’d think that that would give you a clue I’m throwin' out this moniker, when suddenly it did occur That maybe, baby, I’m a hooker too And I’m hearin' that familiar tune They made a hooker out of you And maybe I’m a hooker too And maybe I’m a hooker too And maybe I’m a hooker too
