When he's holding then the streetlamps, they seem an awful lot like spotlights |
|
Yeah, sometimes |
|
Charlemagne gets uptight |
|
Running numbers between bars, running girls between the cars |
|
And sometimes |
|
Charlemagne feels alright, alright, alright |
|
Charlemagne had eyes just like a lover |
|
Last winter there was weather and his eyes just iced right over |
|
Cassanova's in the corner and he's asking for a dance |
|
Speed shooters driving 'round and coming down and trying to hook up with an exit ramp |
|
Tramps like us and we like tramps |
|
Charlemagne's got something in his sweatpants |
|
Holly was supposed to be at |
|
CCD but she was walking around on shady streets |
|
She was looking around for something she could take up to a party |
|
And it's not like she's enslaved, it's more like she's enthralled |
|
She don't need it but she likes it so she always makes that call |
|
First it makes her feel tall, then it makes her feel small and it's all a sweet fleeting feeling |
|
They did the "been caught stealing" into "dancing on the ceiling" |
|
And you're damn right we danced |
|
Charlemagne's got something in his sweatpants |
|
Do you want me to tell it like it's boy meets girl and the rest is history, or do you want it like a murder mystery? |
|
I'm gonna tell it like a comeback story' |
|
Cause when we left we were defeated and depressed and when we arrived we were ripping high |
|
We had a gun in the glove box, we had some sweet stuff tucked into our socks, and |
|
Jesus Christ in all |
|
His glory |
