'It's late enough
All your kids should be home.'
The policeman says
As he takes your beer for his own

You remember
Wondering what his wife thought
About his occupation
He knows that you were just chasing a dream

To the town line and back and over again
So he winks at your girls
And tells you all, 'I'll see you later.'

I was stealing kisses from a boy
Now I'm begging affection from a man
In my house dress
Don't you know who I am?
Don't you know who I am?
Standing in your kitchen

It's late enough
Your husband's dinner is cold
So you wrap it up and leave it for him on the stove
It's probably the traffic again

Another important meeting
You haven't talked to an adult all day
Except for your neighbor who drives you crazy
When he finally gets in
He's sure not in the mood for talkin'

I was stealing kisses from a boy
Now I'm begging affection from a man
In my house dress
Don't you know who I am?
Don't you know who I am?
I'm standing in your kitchen

And hours become days
Days become years
And you could burn down this town
If they made matches from fear
'Cause you're no worse off than anybody else
Hey, don't you even know?
Don't you even know yourself?

So you're standing outside your high school doors
The ones you walked through twenty years before
And you whisper to all the girls
'Run, run, oh, run.'

I was stealing kisses from a boy
Now I'm begging affection from a man
In my house dress
Don't you know who I am?
Don't you know who I am?
Take a look at who I am
Take a look at who I am
I'm stealing kisses
Stealing kisses
