WHEN SHE TOOK OFF HER SHIRT

A crowd around her, the spotlight found her
You could just tell that she loved to dance
She's no one special, that's why it's special
We're all at the mercy of circumstance

As you predicted, I am conflicted
It's never easy and it's rarely clear
So call me charmless, insist it's harmless
But when daylight comes things seem so severe

All the planets became aligned
And we glimpsed what the gods designed
She was just having a good time
When 10,000 screams combined
How much power did she exert?
When she smiled and took off her shirt?

We charged unblinking beyond all thinking
Perhaps there's no need to understand
But I still wonder if we blundered
Was it magic or some sleight of hand?
