Last Dance Rodeo
Your lungs fill up with concrete
Her voice is all you can hear
Red lips and a screwdriver
Wrapped around some mink clad queer
And you know that she's no diamond
In this damn jukebox hell
Cause only fools gold fools fools
In two-bit hotels
But she's cooler than all that
A real high class cat
Queen of the last dance rodeo
Under the gas lamp the air is thick and velvetine
Your bones fill with hunger
Your heart fills with longing
You're no longer human
You're an insatiable hole
You wanna bury your face forever in the navel of her soul
Cause you know
All you need is a heart to call home
All you need is a heart to call home - that's all
Lightbulbs and nylons
And plastic chandeliers
Objects are only objects
They can't feel when you're near
But tangerine lips & lily white breasts
These things are eternal
Inside them humanity rests
Her skin is like a seashell
You listen to her soul
Like an old time radio show
Cause under the gas lamp the air is thick and velvetine
Your bones fill with hunger
Your heart fills with longing
You're no longer human
You're an insatiable hole
You wanna bury your face forever in the navel of her soul
Cause you know
All you need is a heart to call home
All you need is a heart to call home - that's all
Don't wander too far
My one constant star
Darkness exists
except where you are
My feet are filled with wandering
They follow your own
Cause everyhwere you are feels like home
So search all you miners
You hunters of dreams
Look in the alleyways
For what you know is not what it seems
And feign all you maidens
But don't resist too long
Lest you look behind you
And see your own shadow is gone
Don't you know?
It's the last rodeo
You gotta find yourself a cowboy
Or someone to keep you warm when it's cold
Cause under the gas lamp the air is thick and velvetine
Your bones fill with hunger
Your heart fills with longing
You're no longer human
You're an insatiable hole
You wanna bury your face forever in the navel of her soul
Cause you know
All you need is a heart to call home
All you need is a heart to call home - that's all
