I survived the dinner And the air went thinner I retired to the briars by the pool It gets so loud If I die this instant Taken from the distance They will probably list it down Among other things round town Got my rings around me I got baby to pound me I see stars and go weak My baby cries and lays me down In the skies over black venice I see eyes of a white menace The surprise of the week Is that I never heard the sound And all the l.a. Women Fall asleep while swimming I got paid to fish 'em out And then one day I lost the job And I cried a little I got fried a little Then she laid her eyes on mine And she said, "babe, you're better off" I got my rings around me I got baby to pound me I see stars and go weak My baby cries and lays me down In the skies over black venice I see eyes of a white menace The surprise of the week Is that I never heard the sound Tunnel vision lights my way Leave a little life today As a free-fall advances I'm the moron who dances Ahhahhhahhhahhhahhahh I was teething on roses I was in guns and noses Ahhahhhahhhahhhahhahh Under the withering white sky's a humiliation Under the withering white sky's a humiliation Tunnel vision lights my way Leave a little life today Tunnel vision lights my way Leave a little life today She wore blue velvet Said she can't help it She wore blue velvet Said she can't help it She wore blue velvet Said she can't help it
