Staring back at the trash magazines
 Martians say earth girls are lonely
 Well that's no news to me

 In the parking lot I saw two cowboys
 Fighting for a handicapped space
 So what is a girl to do now boys
 To make sense of this place

 There's too much wrong in the world tonight
 Too much I can't understand
 I wanna board up these windows
 And turn out these lights
 And lie down with an innocent man
 Lie down with an innocent man

 I don't need a strong man's protection
 I don't want a faithless man's love
 Just a little respect and affection
 Would be more than enough

 Cause I've been shot down by love's aimless arrows
 And I've shot a few wild ones myself
 But these days the choices are narrow
 And you've got to aim well

 There's too much wrong in the world tonight
 Too much I can't understand
 I wanna board up these windows
 And turn out these lights
 And lie down with an innocent man
 Lie down with an innocent man

 I've been holding my heart like a lantern
 Looking out for just one honest face
 All the noise out there won't matter
 If I can trust in just one quiet place

 There's too much wrong in the world tonight
 Too much I can't understand
 I wanna board up these windows
 And turn out these lights
 And lie down with an innocent man
 Lie down with an innocent man
