" Two Hearts in True Waltz Time "

" She never goes back to do something she didn't
Or undo something she did "

Oh sundown finds her runnin'
But the night pushes her deep within the tunnel
She camouflages herself in dayglo paint
And sings her love songs through a funnel
Oh she clings to the walls like a cat who calls
The shots for life and for death
Wearing nothin' but the makeup that she uses
To try and cover up for herself
But she can't hide her sword
She gives no terms for surrender
She's livin' the third world war




Now the tunnel police, they steadily increase
The search for where she hides her kids
As she swings on a vine, across the state line
They measure the length of her skid
She never goes back to do something she didn't
Or undo something she did
The smoke streams from the street
And the night is complete
With a long and fiery belch
She's just another Orphan Annie
Hung up pushin' for a madomieselle

And she rides like a Caesar, brandishin a whip
On the hood of his squad car
As the siren wails, she silently sails
Leaving catprints in the tar
Oh she breaks with the dawn
And by morning she's gone
Leaving nothing but another night
She returns to her home
Like a dog returns for a bone
Another unsatisfied wife




And in his little booth
Secure from the truth
He wants her more than he's got the guts to say
But as she needs to be real
He needs to conceal
The realness of his place
So he sings a little song
And in a chiffon sarong
She performs a black ballet in space
But she's just another flop with a fancy name
He's just another cop with a pretty face
So together they commit the ballroom crime
As two hearts in true waltz time
