lyrics

the old house on the corner
needs a little heat
the old lady needs a little help
crossing the street
and the children in the alleyway
got no shoes on their feet
I'm the one for them

the blind man on the roadside
needs somebody's eyes
and the baby on the park bench
needs somebody nice
and me, I need to help 'em
in my disguise
I'm the one for them

and now I lay me down to sleep
with my secret life as a saint
oh my baby don't you peep
at my secret life as a saint

'cause I don't want to scare you
with this hideous halo

the state of my compassion
is sorry to be sure
who knows what I was missin'
while rolling on the floor
in fits of strangled laughter
my sides were gettin' sore
but I'm the one for them

take my heart for a long, dark ride
'cause I want to be yours if you want to be mine
and this ain't no mortal sin, baby
ain't no suicide
I want you by my side

'cause I don't want to scare you
with this hideous hairdo
