'Til I break in the Benz.
'Til I break at the bend.
A killer found my Savior.
A killer from a savior.
All the shiny tins
All that she intends
All those sinners in this world
All that shimmers in this world
And I break out the band
And I brake at the bend
Dance hall angel
Guess I'll let it go.
Desolate and cold.
Guess I'll let it go...
I'll ride on a pony
Till I'm ugly and I'm old.
I'll ride on a pony
Till I'm dusty and I'm old.
Just when I was Lord
Just when I was low
Sharing with a sweaty nose
Sharing with us what he knows
She dreams a shifting dream trama in each line
Reality's on paper
Lavender and cream
Fills her head with lies
Reality escapes her.
She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise
Pink linen and white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies
Reality escapes her.
She drinks a champagne drink, strawberry Sprite...
She dreams a champagne dream, strawberry surprise...
She says she's ashamed
Can she take me for a wall?
She says she's ashamed
Can she take me for a while?
She's a- she's ashamed.
She says she's ashamed.
She's a-, she's ashamed
Can she take it for a walk?
or
Can she take the fall-oh-all?
She says she's ashamed
Can she take me for a while?
She's too far away for me to hold.
It's too far away for me to hold.
Sherry with her sweaty nose
Sharing with us what he knows
Take me for a walk.
Take me for a while.
To fart away
Too far away
To fart away
Too far away
Until I find my savior
A killer from a savior
Until I found a Savior
A killer from a savior
Until I found my savior.
A killer from a savior.
We'll forget the pants
We'll forget the past
You fire away
You’re far away
