Uh-huh, oo-hoo, yeah
(we need some help in aisle 10)
(scapegoat wax)
i see you at my job (uh-huh)
you're carrying yourself so well (so well)
i made myself a promise (what's that?)
not to get emotional (uh-huh)
as i remain stable (stable)
i take another glance at you (at you)
if we were at the disco, whoa, whoa
then i would have to dance with you
this isn't cool (not cool)
and in my lonely eyes i see myself in eloquent strides (eloquent
strides)
in a sharp tuxedo, here goes, nothing to her (what, what?)
Hello allison, i wanna hold your hand
i haven't been the same man
since i saw you coming in
let's have a toast to the girl in aisle 10
(we need some help in aisle 10)
(check it out)
i seen you about a quarter after nine (nine)
you shine in the neon sign
where are you from? (from)
you float in like an angel at night
into my life (life) and leave me with a song to write
and now i'm loaded, holding my sack
go in the room where she is at
with a line of customers getting mad
they didn't see what i seen, nuh-uh
the store queen made everything easier for one fine eve (one fine eve)
and in my bloodshot eyes all i can see is everything's fine
(everything's fine)
with a turning stomach, running, thoughts through my head (come on)
Hello allison, i wanna hold your hand
i haven't been the same man
since i saw you coming in
let's have a toast to the girl in aisle 10
(we need some help in aisle 10)
You came in here again (what, what?)
i'm drinking by the copier (copier)
i made myself a promise (now what was that?)
that i would finally talk to her (huh, huh)
as i remain stable (stable)
i take another drink for you (for you)
i set it on the table, whoa whoa
i'm sure i look a drunken fool
i'm seeing two (whoa)
and in my lonely eyes i see myself in eloquent strides
in a sharp tuxedo, here goes, nothing to her (w-w-w-what?)
Hello allison, i wanna hold your hand
