- [Intro]
- Uh-huh...ooh-ooh...yeah, yeah...
- (We need some help in Aisle 10)
- [Whispers]
- Scapegoat Wax!
- [Verse 1]
- I see you at my job (Uh-huh)
- You're carryin' yourself so well (So well)
- I made myself a promise (What's that?)
- Not to get emotional (Uh-huh)
- As I remain stable (Stable)
- I take another glance at you (At you)
- If we were at the disco, whoa, whoa
- Then I would have to dance with you
- This isn't cool (Not cool)
- [Refrain]
- And in my lonely eyes I see myself in eloquent strides
- In a sharp tuxedo, here goes nothin' to her (What, what?)
- [Hook]
- Hello Allison, I wanna hold your hand
- I haven't been the same man
- Since I saw you comin' in
- Let's have a toast to the girl in Aisle 10
- (We need some help in Aisle 10)
- Hello Allison, I wanna hold your hand
- I haven't been the same man
- Since I saw you comin' in
- Let's have a toast to the girl in Aisle 10 (Check it out!)
- (We need some help in Aisle 10)
- [Verse 2]
- I seen you about a quarter after nine
- You shine in the neon sign
- Where are you from?
- You float in like an angel at night
- Into my life and leave me with a song to write
- And now I'm loaded, holdin' my sack
- Been wonderin' where she is at
- With a line of customers gettin' mad
- They didn't see what I see, nuh-uh
- The store Queen made everything easier for one fine eve
- [Refrain]
- And in my bloodshot eyes all I can see is everything's fine (Everything's fine)
- With a turnin' stomach, runnin' thoughts through my head (Come on!)
- [Hook]
- Hello Allison, I wanna hold your hand
- I haven't been the same man
- Since I saw you comin' in
- Let's have a toast to the girl in Aisle 10
- (We need some help in Aisle 10)
- Hello Allison, I wanna hold your hand
- I haven't been the same man
- Since I saw you comin' in
- Let's have a toast to the girl in Aisle 10
- (We need some help in Aisle 10)
- [Instrumental Interlude]
- [Verse 3]
- You came in here again (For what?)
- I'm drinkin' by the copier (Copier)
- I made myself a promise (Now what was that?)
- That I would finally talk to her (Huh, huh)
- As I remain stable (Stable)
- I take another drink for you (For you)
- I set it on the table, whoa, whoa
- I'm sure I look a drunken fool
- I'm seein' two (Whoa)
- [Refrain]
- And in my lonely eyes I see myself in eloquent strides
- In a sharp tuxedo, here goes nothin' to her (W-w-w-what?)
