Heard your name the other day, it's been a long, long time
|
||
|
Ancient history, some would say, another state of mind
|
||
|
You smell of memory felt-tipped electric child
|
||
|
|
||
|
She takes a plastic pill, she plays the weatherman
|
||
|
She screams "Religion kills more than it saves you, man"
|
||
|
She painted filigrees, she was the acid queen
|
||
|
She claims society is just a fever dream
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now you live in the trees and salty seas tripping out in the blue skies
|
||
|
You shut the door on everything too busy getting high
|
||
|
And me, just another dream theory lost inside your eyes
|
||
|
|
||
|
She's not in your history books, lost her mind and kept her looks
|
||
|
Down beneath the radar screen, she's lit up like gasoline
|
||
|
Been throught a million kicks looking for the one that sticks
|
||
|
Never would've known it then, I might not see her again
|
||
|
|
||
|
Top hats and tails for thrills, red lips and famous hands
|
||
|
Sidelong and glancing still in tiny dancer land
|
||
|
|
||
|
We kissed, time slipped, hard edged, tight lipped
|
||
|
See you some time, ask me if I care
|
||
|
Karen, miss communication, Karen, Karen
|
