Karaoke

You took to the stage
A chiffon, a supreme and reading from a tv screen
You sang with genuine emotion
Or so it did seem

Your eyes expressed a vision of love
Your arms outstretched to me
We met Under The Boardwalk
But did it mean anything?

You sang a melody, unchained
But will your love godspeed to me?
Are you going to stand by your man
Or is it just karaoke?

Words from Cyrano are easy to ape
Anyway though it's fun to escape
In the intoxication and fantasy

That's much sweeter than the grape
I'll live either way
The vapor or that other thing
If be the vapor, flood the lights

If be the other, your love is king
You sang a melody, unchained
But will your love godspeed to me?
Are you going to stand by your man
Or is it just karaoke?

Is it karaoke, all your words?
Is it karaoke, your antics?
Or is it all some kind of pantomime?
Playing the role of romantic?
Don't let's answer this question now
I guess it doesn't matter anymore
Guess I'm a load of karaoke too
Unable to say more
You sang a melody, unchained
But will your love godspeed to me?
Are you going to stand by your man
Or are you just karaokeing me?
You sang a melody, unchained
But will your love godspeed to me?
Are you going to stand by your man
Or is it just karaoke?

You sang a melody, unchained
But will your love godspeed to me?
Are you going to stand by your man
Or is it just karaoke?
