No good comes from the one horse town just twenty minutes after dark When the lights come on, the kids come home, or their mother tear them apart Meet me in the Cadillac broken down abandoned in the park We can get high, talk about the time, that tore our lives apart It was a mystery What that man said to me With his house on fire Or that's what he believed His wife hysterical But looks incredible There are miracles And now hes history But some say they still see the fire from his eyes just 20 minutes after dark Oh god They dance all night in that wretched house Just black tar records spin they used to do it in the kitchen cause the rest of the floors were just too paper thin The smell of blood and smoldering wood is all that's left there now she waits where the front porch used to be for him to come home some how I think I'm too damn high He will come back again When I get my shit straight Imma love you right down the middle When I screw my head on Imma love you right down the middle We got time! The sun is out and the kids are up and we stumble out of the car The neighbors stare with crooked necks as we cut across their yards We shake our heads to remind ourselves of exactly who we are The kids stop their bikes and they stare at us like we are glorified works of art.
