Angel Is a Centerfold

by The J. Geils Band

on Freeze Frame (1981)

Yo, yo

It's Thursday night
And I ain't tryin' to think
So I hit the bar
To get a blue drink

I want to find some cute girl
Believe me
But I want a fly chick
One who ain't too easy

And just then
She walked in
With a dude on her side
To shy to be her boyfriend

And just then I stepped in
I'm far from shy
Bowed like a felt pen

She said there's more to life
Then the money
And the limelight
You only find it when the times
Right
I'm just tryin' to get laid
So I'm like, yeah right
And then she disappeared
Into the night, to the night

My blood runs cold (Say what?)
My memories
Have just been sold (Hell no)
My angel is a centerfold (She's what?)
My angel is a centerfold (Hell no)

My blood runs cold (Say what?)
My memories
Have just been sold (Hell no)
(She's what?)
My angel is a centerfold (Hell no)

Oh no
Won't believe what I saw
At the magazine stand
At the fox hills mall

A face I seen
But not in my dreams
In between my sheets
In the massage dreams

Cute button nose
She strikin' a pose
On the cover of vogue
Man I wish I woulda known
So good-lookin'
It hurts my heart
'Cause I seen her looking better
With her make up off

She said there's more to life
Then the money
And the limelight
You only find it when the times
Right
I'm just tryin' to get laid
So I'm like, yeah right
And then she disappeared
Into the night, to the night

My blood runs cold (Say what?)
My memories
Have just been sold (Hell no)
My angel is a centerfold (She's what?)
My angel is a centerfold (Hell no)

My blood runs cold (Say what?)
My memories
Have just been sold (Hell no)
(She's what?)
My angel is a centerfold (Hell no)

Na na na-na-na-na
Na-na na na na-na na na

Yo
She said there's more to life
Then a bong and a pipe
A beat and a snare
And the songs that you write
So I thought to myself
Am I wrong or right?
It's going to be a long night
Alright

My blood runs cold (Say what?)
My memories
Have just been sold (Hell no)
My angel is a centerfold (She's what?)
My angel is a centerfold (Hell no)

My blood runs cold (Say what?)
My memories
Have just been sold (Hell no)
Na na na-na-na-na (She's what?)
My angel is a centerfold (Hell no)

Na na na-na-na-na
Na-na na na na-na na na
