Where is your boy tonight?
I hope he is a gentleman
And maybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing about this part of town

When I wake up
I'm willing to take my chances on
The hope I forget that you hate him more than you notice
I wrote this for you, for you, so

You need him, I could be him
I could be an accident but I'm still tryin'
And that's more than I can say for him

Where is your boy tonight?
I hope he is a gentleman
And maybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing about this part of town

Someday I'll appreciate in value
Get off my ass and call you
The mean time, I'll sport my brand new fashion
Of waking up with pants on at four in the afternoon

You need him, I could be him
I could be an accident but I'm still tryin'
And that's more than I can say for him

One, two, three, four

Where is your boy tonight
I hope he is a gentleman
And maybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing about this part of town

Won't find out
He won't find out
Won't find out
He won't find out

Where is your boy tonight?
I hope he is a gentleman
Maybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing about this part of town

Where is your boy tonight?
I hope he is a gentleman
Maybe he won't find out what I know
You were the last good thing about this part of town

    i love the last verse about "someday ill appreciate in value..." gooood song

    i think the lyrics are pretty self explanatory: he likes the girl, she has a man, he deserves her more than him.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
