British thumb around the neck With carpal tunnel you connect The new yardbirds who showed you how With foreknowledge they would allow Bad British Thumb One beatless drum Bad British Thumb See what you’ve done now Family photos of rolling rocks A few ashtrays you kept well stocked Your aunts and sisters scare away The white witches who came to play You know the sun will never set On empires we erect
2.
Lonely bless the misery Kiss me when I’m near your cheek Starboard soldiers ride for free Prouder than your missing teeth Hangovers heighten In small towns we arrive Sip after sip we survive Never mind the things we’ve lost We’ll buy them back and pay the cost Smitten sisters make eyes crossed More glimmer than a winter frost Do you watch over the ones gone before? On roads less than traveled we’re anxious to explore Underneath my feet white lines pass me by If you’re here when I come back then you’re mine
3.
Green pack cigarettes Does she have regret? Trying to make a move No one disapproved From a no name town Of a smaller town She keeps all the gifts he bought her A jaded conductor’s daughter We’re footnotes on her blotter now She was a tiger ladybug And he was her drug Blue girl on his wall A time that saved us all Bright lights called her name Destined to find her fame Eastbound pedigree Doesn’t make sense to me
4.
Tell me what you want And anything can happen Find me in awhile Or when the sky is blackened I’ll make you want it bad Succumbing to surrender Like none you ever had Make me your new contender I know you want to dance I know you want to fight I know you want to stay out all night I know you got a man Can he do what I can? But no one really needs to know Steady as she goes Hang on to my number Tingle in your toes Feel my sassy thunder
5.
Another high-heeled hell Some secrets we can’t tell They promised you the screen They made you millions in mean Stay out of my life Stay out of my life Stay out of my life You’ve been there way too long You poured them stiff and long My boredom makes you strong Give back my parts of speech We never learn what we teach
6.
When I’m cornered I’m always staring at your face You wanted something but you don’t know what’s for free When I’m waiting you never know what to say When I haunt you, you never know when to break On the floor you wanted more Why did you leave? And when I’m with you, you know they all disapprove And when I’m knocked down you never know what’s the truth And when I’m waiting, I never know what to say And when I’m cornered you always look the other way
