It's the ways of her father
|
If she's gonna change she hasn't done it yet
|
And the desert is calling to me
|
Run before the final trap is set
|
All roads lead to the city
|
Where the dudes and the dykes all look the same
|
Lady lays out the pattern
|
With the parts of her body that seem tame
|
Death Valley lives and Tracy isn't sure what really gives
|
|
Act like a child and I'll respond with my well-rehearsed farewell
|
Quoting the verse that you bought but weren't quite prepared to sell
|
|
Saying I think I love you
|
Maybe I care
|
It's not fair
|
Death Valley lives and Tracy Isn't sure what really gives
|
|
And it's a sore spot when the room's burning hot
|
And the desert air just cannot bring you down
|
Still the bed's warm but a cold arm
|
Keeps me floating inches off the ground
|
|
Death Valley lives and Tracy isn't sure what really gives
|
|
Go paint your toes wipe your nose and then come say good-bye
|
And all along tell yourself that I'm wrong if I try
|
Cryin' sorry it's over
|
I'm not to blame
|
What a game
|
Death Valley lives now I'm not even sure what really gives
|
