Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The red, red lips
Of some secret solution
Central Intelligence Agency
Has a file that's a mile longer than peace
[Verse 2]
She's naked on the phone
Watchin' them back
No eyes, just their stupid grins
They long to be liberal mannequins
[Verse 3]
And in their tiny room
They eat Chinese food
And they don't call their wives
[Verse 4]
'Cause the girl in the window is
Pressin' her breasts up against the window pane
The guy they're after on the floor below her is
Cuttin' cocaine, higher than the building
[Verse 5]
A one way trip
Whoever though she'd miss
The in's and out's of oxygen?
The darkest side of the biggest goddamn ride
Ever been on
[Verse 6]
Her mother loves that show
Even though she never gets the answers right
It's easier to play along
Sometimes more than bein' wrong
[Verse 7]
They found her in her room
Wearin' a pink bunny suit
Sour cherry lipstick
[Verse 8]
Hangin' from the closet door
Her eyes were wide, maybe to despise
Maybe just to look into your
Headlight, morning glow
Headlight, morning glow
[Verse 9]
And this is it, this is it
Prime time deliverance
Prime time deliverance
And this is it, this is it
Prime time deliverance
Prime time
[Verse 10]
That you have and you hold
If you have then you hold
That you have and you hold
If you have then you hold
That you have and you hold
If you have then you hold
That you have then you hold
[Verse 11]
She says, the best thing you can do
Is hang around awhile
