Compositor: Exene Cervenka / John Doe
you sat at home the windows tinted black
it hits you hard and you cried so long life
turned & wandered never to come back again
takes what she gives you don't feel sorry for her
when you fell out of the starlight inn you were
too hurt to walk to bad to begin i looked at
the sign but i couldnt feel sad for you takes
what she gives you don't cry when you kiss her
poor little girl ran away from home i try to explain
why she wont say a thing sad sad thing im so far
away now how can i say why she wont talk at all
she holds the deck of cards she wants to be alone
"ill be very ill and i tried waking up now
i want to be alone" when you ran out of petes hotel
you didnt look so good and you didnt feel so well
"hold me tight" but i couldnt get it right takes
what she gives you...
poor little girl...
she holds a deck of cards she wants
to be alone she still drinks in the dark the radio
is left on late she saw a madman fight and break
it all cause she hated himself and she felt better
off cause she was only drunk
