I'm in love with the toughest girl in the neighborhood
everytime i see her, I get afraid.
'Cause she treats me just like your average savior would
she don't give up her power, she always brings me flowers.
We walk down 3rd street, hell's angels all marvel at her
and everytime she looks right through them,
she does me right, she knows what matters
and she proceeds to knock me out.
I'm in love with the toughest girl in the neighborhood
underneath her cover, it's heavenly.
And she holds me just like a baby's momma would
she stripped me of my power in the first half hour.
She grew up catching fireflies
and i beleive it's the same with guys
cause when I stand before her eyes
I am captured
she's my cleopatra jones.
Going out with the toughest girl in the neighborhood.

She told me it was pretty, she was glad to make its acquaintence
My siamese cat sat on her linoleum floor.
She gave me the opal for my crown, I couldn't believe it was tuesday
Everything dragged like the day before.
She brought me in to her little shop of hormones, I bought a t-shirt.
In a paper cup i drank all her sunburn, immagration don't take her back.
Strawberryvelvetfiftycentshoes
she could dress like a saint if she wanted to
shine like an emerald next to the moon
she could wear anything, she could wear anything.
She's chic in jackie o glasses, she pray to Rhinestone Elvis
she lay me down on the patio floor.
Then we went down to the krispy kreme in the burnt october sienna
it's all a working class clown on a tuesday night can afford
She got sad , I took her to a movie, Johnny Depp and Brando
in my heart there's a valley and a shivering sun, I'm in love but I'm no Don Juan
Strawberryvelvetfiftycentshoes
she mix stripes and plaids when she just can't choose
ninety delusions and ten percent truth
she could wear anything, she could wear anything
I shiver in the sun, 'cause she could be the one
Strawberryvelvetfiftycentshoes
God the girl can't sing but she's so in tune
shine like an emerald next to the moon
she could wear anything
Strawberryvelvetfitycentshoes
she would paper-mache if she had the news
ninety delusions and ten percent truth

If you're in bed listening to this song
you can be sure nothing's gonna go wrong.
If there's peace on Earth, peace
peace on Earth, peace.
And to all a good night and to all a good night

Deserted on friday after noon
last words hung in the air
like faint perfume
On the night before sunday
all through the flat
not a conscience was stirring
just roaches and rats
and the wallpaper clung to
the kitchen with grease
while the magnets held her
picture to the 'fridgerator-freezer
momma's cookin' chicken and
I'm not chokin' on a wishbone
overblown ego's in checkmate
sore loser, using what the gods gave out
Lovers on earth can't understand
I don't fit their universal plan
I've been to the stars and back again
Send me no sympathy
I'm staying down
deep in my solitude
where i can drown
on a hot summer sunday
and here in the park
I'm laughin' on grass
without a guitar
and the girl's in brooklyn
hugging all the trees
in a backyard garden
I'll never get to see
Lovers on earth can't understand...
Ln a hot summer sunday
and here in the park
I'm laughin' on grass
without a guitar
Lovers on earth can't understand
I don't fit their universal plan
I've been to the stars and back again

Woke up at six a.m.
infomercial screaming at me.
I sat up in my clothes again
with everything still dreaming at me.
I've got to stop this ritual
of getting drunk and dodging ghosts.
Forgive me, my sordid whims
I always hurt the ones who love me most.
This could be my last confession.
I was talking high, searching low
for the answer in disguise.
With a smile that was hurting so
I kept myself anesthetized.
Everybody's weak somewhere and
man I ain't too proud to share.
I'm right here, right or wrong
I got no halo, you knew this all along
And you come with your blind justice
I trust you more than I trust myself
This could be my last confession, kiss the wasted days goodbye
This could be my last confession, you could be the reason why
This could be
'Cause I'm sick of walking these dirty streets looking to cop
And I'm sick of looking at jails and judges and cops
And I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of hearing myself complain
This could be my last confession, kiss the wasted days goodbye
This could be my last confession, you could be the reason why

She says she only looks at boys who look like me, am I supposed to feel good?
She says she's only touched by boys who feel like me, the kind who make her feel understood
and when I leave her home she's having parties in my head
While I'm in some hotel room in the midwest with a book I've already read
Should I trust you in your heart shaped glasses?
Should I look the other way?
I can't laugh until this feeling passes, stare my fears in the face talk me down
Living here in this town you hear stories that make it hard to sleep.
Promises of fifteen years are broken in five minutes on a strangers sheets I just want to buy my girl some quiet, a place in nyack.
But tonite I'm working four sets at the black thorn breaking my back
Should I trust you in your heart shaped glasses?
Should I look the other way?
I can't laugh until this feeling passes, stare my fears in the face talk me down
'Cause I don't wanna believe, the love in your eyes ain't just for me.
Woman I gotta be the only one privy to your arms
Should I trust you in your heart shaped glasses?
Should I look the other way?
I can't laugh until this feeling passes, stare my fears in the face
Wont you help me?

I watch you sleeping, well you ain't keeping no secrets from me
I know where you wanna be
you're always keeping warm in my burgundy bed
and I'm in my nervous head
You insult my intelligence, when you tell me he's just a friend
and now I can't sleep
'Cause I know I can't compete
not with Niko, he's a painter, he's so zen
You're always fishing, wishing i'd come and hug a tree
but i need to feel concrete.
Now don't go thinking just 'cause i run like a rat in a maze
that my heart ain't in the right place
It's a bad situation, a hazard of my occupation
I got no time for peace
So I know I can't compete, I ain't complete
not like Niko, he's a painter, he's so zen
I can't compete, I know I can't compete
not with Niko, no no
