Eveready

I was looking for a little inspiration and there she was
her smile looked like a private invitation to another world
I sit back and watched the crowd's reaction as she starts to move
Now she's starring as the night's attraction: you'll get everything but the girl.

They call her Eveready, to party through the night
And when she dance Rocksteady she feels alright
I could see she had a craving for attention, a lust for more
One by one she won the men's affection, got their girls upset
But you see it's just a game of exhibition, she'd never take them home
Hidden by the motion and distraction there is something that she must forget.

They call her Eveready to energize
And when she dance Rocksteady she'll hypnotize

Every night I reach that same location, I find her there
Heading up the evening's celebration until the dawn
As daylight caresses the horizon she leaves alone

They call her Eveready to energize
And when she dance Rocksteady there's madness in her eyes
She works like Eveready until the break of day
And though she feels rock steady she turns and walks away.
