Magnolia Electric Co. - Hard To Love A Man EP
Hard To Love A Man
It was hard to love a man like you
Goodbye was half the words you knew
While you was waiting for me not to call
I sent my love (x2)
In a life built out of only goodbye
Is there even room for you to try
While you was waiting for me not to call
I sent my love (x2)
It was hard to love a man like you
Goodbye is just what you do
In a life built out of only goodbye
is there even room for you (x2)
While you was waiting for me not to call
I sent my love (x2)
Bowery
While the wolf had her fangs
Deep in my heart
Who’s been writing them songs
Who’s been singing
And who’s been listening
Blue eyes while you’ve been gone
That two dollar hat and them old black stockings
Down on the bowery
Hand in hand the full moon went walking
With blue eyes without me
And the tears used to sing ‘em
And the cold wind would blow ‘em
Down on the bowery
Broken hearts were the only things listening
And blue eyes, I heard everything
That two dollar hat and them old black stockings
Down on the bowery
Hand in hand the full moon went walking
With blue eyes without me (x2)
Doing Something Wrong
Last night the great bird was steady in his bow
I have got my shit together and I am ready to go
Oh but the way I’ve been acting (x2)
I’d have to be lucky
Last night the grey moon
Climbed right down in this hole
How on earth did you get down here
He said you know, that still ain’t clear
But I had my shit together
And I was ready to go
I must be doing something wrong (x3)
I’m gonna say this once for the both of us
There’s a lot of people out there who you can’t trust
There’s a lot of people out there who can’t trust us
Just get your shit together
Get ready to go
Everybody’s doing something wrong (x3)
31 Seasons In The Minor Leagues
I can tell by that look some of you don’t understand
And I can’t see how any of you can
When the dark walks up to you
You gotta shake his hand
You ain’t ever gonna win the game
Hell kid you don’t even know the coach’s name
And everything you ever looked up to
Now it’s all looking down on you
Trying to see if you can get back up
Out of that hole you climbed into
But they’re not expecting much
Cause you got so far down
You got so far down
Well you’re right, cause I had to take a look around
See the way they’re talking
There ain’t nothing here but ???
All I had to do was take a swing
I’d hit that thing
Anybody could
But I’ve been in long enough to know when it’s no good
I’ve been in long enough to know when it’s no good
I’ve been in long enough to know I ain’t even getting close
I ain’t even getting close
Werewolves Of London (Warren Zevon cover)
I saw a werewolf walking with a Chinese menu in his hand
Through the streets of Soho in the rain
He was looking for a place called Lee Ho Fook’s
For to get a big dish of beef chow mein
Ah-oo, Werewolves of London
You can hear him howling around your kitchen door
Better not let him in
Little old lady got mutilated late last night
Werewolves of London again
Ah-oo, Werewolves of London
He’s the hairy-handed gent that ran amuck in Kent
Lately he’s been overheard in Mayfair
Better stay away from him
He’ll rip your lungs out Jim
Hah! I’d like to meet his tailor
Ah-oo, Werewolves of London
I saw Lon Chaney walking with the Queen
Doing the Werewolves of London
I saw Lon Chaney, Jr. walking with the Queen
Doing the Werewolves of London
Ah-oo, Werewolves of London
I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic’s
And his hair was perfect
Draw blood
