A Shark In Jet’s Clothing Lyrics

Blondie

I always had my eyes on you but you came from across the line.
I had to make good time to see you but you had to pay the fine.
All the boys on my side knew that you were the shark.
If you were found on the borderline youd be shot in the dark.
Dont wear those clothes again, they dont make it in this crowd.
Dont go out d.t.k., youll wear your best suit in the ground.
Were meeting in a neutral zone: the last car on the train.
The love you brought shaking up my bones and crawling through our veins.
We always met at the edge of a blade and we left at the end of the fight.
Of all the girls youve played and you laid why did this one have to be white?
Theyre gonna getcha at 12 oclock high, got their sights set low on you.
You better believe me, I wouldnt lie.
We better quit before youre through!
Theyre gonna getcha at 12 oclock high, got their sights set low on you.
You better believe me, I wouldnt lie.
We better quit before youre through!
