Lyrics
People stared at the makeup on his face
Laughed at his long black hair, his animal grace
The boy in the bright blue jeans jumped up on the stage
Ladies' daughters sang his songs of darkness and disgrace
And he was alright
The band was all together
Yes, he was alright
The song went on forever
And he was awful nice
Really quite out of sight
He sang all night long
The femme fatales emerged from shadows to watch this creature fair
Boys stood up on their chairs to make their point of view
And I, I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey
Ladies' daughters sang his songs of darkness and dismay
And he was alright
The band was all together
Yes, he was alright
The song went on forever
And he was awful nice
Really quite out of sight
And he sang all night long
Ooh, how I sighed when they asked if I knew his name
For he was alright
His song went on forever
Yes, he was alright
The song was all together
Yes, he sang awful nice
Really quite paradise
He sang all night long
Wrong song
