Keys (It’s Alright)

[NARRATOR]
So after a little conversation
He's got keys to her flat
After a little conversation
He just walks across her welcome mat
Now who'd of thought
Trust could be bought
For a song and a little chat?
See he had friends and family
Nowhere near as cool as that
She gave him these
Her keys

Now in Beverly Hills they gave him chills
And South Central put his soul in the deep freeze
She gave him her keys

You know those LA ladies in their Mercedes
They lock their door if you just sneeze
Now he's like, "Bitch please"
She gave me her keys

He said, "The kind of place I wanna be
Is where no one's cold or scared of me"
And then she handed him these
Her keys

Yeah, I guess no one ever made him feel
As real as when she mended him by lending him
Her keys

And said welcome to Amsterdam
Welcome to Amsterdam
Welcome to Amsterdam
She said yeah it might look like Sodom
From top to bottom
A shopping mall or vice
But it's alright with me

[NARRATOR]
'Cause she said it's alright

She said yeah it might
Look like Sodom
From top to bottom
A shopping mall of vice
But it's alright with me

'Cause we say it's alright

'Cause we say it's alright

'Cause we say it's alright

Richard Wright said it's alright

Chester Himes said it's alright

James Baldwin said it's alright

And Josephine Baker said it's alright

She came and told me it was alright

She came and told me it was all night

Oh, she told me it was alright
