Lisa says that it's all right
When she meets me at midnight
Lisa says that she has her fun
And she will do it with just about anyone
Lisa says, Lisa says, Lisa says, Lisa says,
Lisa says that she is on the run
Looking for a special one
Lisa says that every time she makes it straight
She knows her heart will break
Lisa says, ...
Looking for a party, some action
Gone to make it feel ok
But what do you mind
Where the time must come on down
Look in
Lisa says, ...
When she meets me at midnight
Lisa says that she has her fun
And she will do it with just about anyone
Looking for a special one
Lisa says that every time she makes it straight
She knows her heart will break
Gone to make it feel ok
But what do you mind
Where the time must come on down
Look in

First of all the lyrics are incorrect and are as follows, I'm not sure if this is another version or what (if so I'd really like to hear) but the version I'm familiar with goes as follows:
Lisa says, on a night like this It'd be so nice, if you gave me a great big kiss And Lisa says, honey, for just one little smile Ill sing and play for you for the longest while
Lisa says Lisa says Lisa says, oh, no Lisa says
Lisa says, honey, you must think -
Lisa says, oh no Lisa says, hey, dont you be a little baby Lisa says, oh, no Lisa says
Hey, if you're looking for a good time Charlie Well, that's not really what I am You know, some good time charlie Always out, having his fun
But if youre looking for some good, good lovin Then sit yourself right over here You know that those good, those good times They just seem to pass me by, just like pie in the sky
And lisa says, on a night like this It'd be so nice if you gave me a great big kiss And lisa says, hey baby, for just one little smile I'll sing and play for you for the longest while Let me hear you now
Lisa says, oh, no, no Lisa says, hey, dont you be a little baby Lisa says, oh, no Lisa says
Why am I so shy Why am I so shy, gee, you know those Good good times, they just seem to pass me by Why am I so shy
First time I saw you I was talking to myself I said, hey, you got such pretty, pretty eyes (that pretty eyes)
Now that youre next to me I just get so upset And lisa, will you tell me, why am I so shy
Why am I so shy Why am I so shy, well, you know that those Good, good times, they just seem to pass me by Why am I so shy
And lisa says, on a night like this Itd be so nice if you gave me a great big kiss And lisa says, honey, for just one little smile Ill sing and play for you for the longest while
Lisa says, oh, no, now Lisa says, hey dont you be a little baby Lisa says, oh, no Lisa says
And I think the song is pretty straight forward in its meaning.
This version appears as a Velvet Underground song, but these lyrics are correct, or at least, are for that version.
The version acepod8 posted is the live VU version, and also by far my favourite.
@aangelene Is A live version. On the live 1969 double album/CD, the lyrics are again different. Lou obviously wasn't too hung up on the exact lyrics. And I like the 1969 version better than the studio version.
