Zeppelin Three (or How I Spent My Bummer Vacation)

by Friends of Cesar Romero

/
1.
there's a wolf in houndstooth blowing down my front door and if i stay too long she might try to take me to war baby you got some nerve you're going to get what you deserve her beady little eyes always peer deep into my soul and if she had it her way she might never let me go Lolita fingers holding me down under your threshold i'm tightly unwound you press them all with the tip of your tongue they don't know they're yours one by one
2.
am i that easy to forget? it's time well spent another lover in the books so save those looks you and i have said our goodbyes so long, farewell, baby it's hell you told me things would never change i'm so deranged how much more foolish could i be? it's easy to see
3.
Car Stares 02:51
drove by your house, saw your car and thought about you make, model and year, there must be a thousand, i swear who are you when i'm not around? these questions keep me bound some other guy tells you things you want to hear but when its time i'm the one who's always there time is long and the days slip by won't you help me make it through the night? everywhere, i see you appear but i know it's just my imagination
4.
Bluest Heart 03:24
i got the bluest heart around since my baby left this town she packed her things and said goodbye she didn't leave no reason why now i've got the bluest heart around how could you leave me alone like this? did you forget those sweet lips that you used to kiss? oh i tried to drink you slowly off my mind each ounce replacing every tear i cried i'm keeping all your promises, i'll put them on a shelf when you decide to come back they'll be for no one else i thought we had a good thing i guess i spoke too soon do you miss these arms of mine or did you find someone new?
5.
on your mark, hold your cue i see you glowing with an orange-ish hue exposing light through the lens the shutter blinks and time suspends put me back together the king's men know no better cause i keep falling for you strike a pose to bat a lash quicker than a burning flash soft focus each new frame Kodachrome® is how i tame (you keep stalling) can't stand for falling for you
6.
her hair is burning in the summer light we fool around in the middle of the night even though we know it's wrong she tells me all my songs sound the same rewrite "Surrender" or maybe "The Flame" there's nothing in common that i see child of wildfire, panties on the wire lookout, someone just might try to take your place freedom cruise through the tallest pines the tops down but i still hear her whine she making out to forget someone too she tell me all about her new boyfriend she tells me that i can't see her again even though she calls me past two child of wildfire, panties on the wire lookout, someone just might try to take your place child of wildfire, soundtrack for desire lookout, someone just might try to steal your name her bed is burning in the summer night we fool around just to keep things tight even though we know it won't last
7.
The Hold 03:02
i try to run, i try to hide but these feelings won't subside you've got such a hold on me day to day, you cross my mind everywhere it's you i find you've got such a hold on me i keep saying that someday i'll break free from your charm but when the night comes i just fall right back into your arms the little things that you do only make me stay with you you've got such a hold on me what's the cost to set me free? tell me now i'll pay the fee you've got such a hold on me release me, won't you let me go so i can love again? i'll beg, steal even borrow just to see past tomorrow you've got such a hold on me you've got a strangle hold don't want to let me go
8.
can i shake my tail for you? i may break a heart or two i can steal a cats meow i'd really like to show you how if you want it nightly i can times it by two i invite you rightly to tell me girl if you it's true what they say about you honeysuckle candy rose let your body do what it knows touch your toes and say my name you don't have to be ashamed
9.
i feel the cold taking over me the days are short with no apology you left me reeling aching and kneeling gone are the days we spent in the sun our love affair had only begun i had such high hope where did our summer go? combat december june is just around the corner sheets of white settle on the ground covering where we'd hang around no solstice visits no frozen kisses you know i count each passing day 'til you arrive just after may no don't forsake me please don't forget me
10.
i'm an opportunistic fleeting lover i might tell you lies when we're undercover i don't think i was ever meant to fall in love i think cupid lost his bow or he had to go he shot all his arrows, i don't know i don't think i was ever meant to fall in love could it be that i may not get there? or could it be that i just don't care? i don't think i was meant to fall in love are you sure you want to get involved with me? i could disappear before you count to three i don't think i was ever meant to fall in love i think cupid lost his bow or he had to go he shot all his arrows, i don't know i don't think i was ever meant to fall in love
