Angie Baby
Helen Reddy

You live your life in the songs you hear
On the rock-n-roll radio
And when a young girl doesn’t have any friends
That’s a really nice place to go

Folks hoping you’ll turn out cool
But they had to take you outta school
You’re a little touched in the head, Angie Baby

Lovers appear in your room each night
And they whirl you across the floor
But they always seem to fade away
When your daddy taps on the door

"Angie girl, are you alright? Tell the radio goodnight...."
All alone once more Angie Baby

Angie Baby, you’re a special lady
Living in a world of make-believe
Well maybe...

Stopping at her house is a neighbor boy
With evil on his mind
Cause he’s been peeking in Angie’s room
At night through the window blind

"I see your folks have gone away....
Would you dance with me today?
I’ll show you how to have a good time, Angie Baby"

When he walks in the room he feels confused
Like he walked into a play
Then the music’s so loud that it spins him around
Till his soul has lost its way
And as she turns the volume down
He’s getting smaller with the sound
It seems to pull him off the ground
Toward the radio he’s bound
Never to be found....

The headlines read that a boy disappeared
And everyone thinks he died....
Except a crazy girl with a secret lover
Who keeps her satisfied
It’s so nice to be insane
No one asks you to explain
Radio by your side, Angie Baby

Angie Baby, you’re a special lady
Living in a world of make-believe
Well maybe...

Well maybe....

Well maybe.....
