The Roches the scorpion lament

Select language to translate this lyric

Stood on the street the other night
In full moonlight
Barefoot and oh dirtied
My dress was goin' away
There I was meetin' up with a man
For the payoff
Faithful and unhenpecked
I somewhat recollect
Soon she heard me
Siren she wailed
Queen spelling bee she nailed me
By name
What am I doin' out on the street?
I'm ashamed dear
Good boy he beats it
I tear myself downtown
God has let me release a sting
In my own eye
Walk home to just nightmares
No angels on the phone
