"Los Flamingos"
(written by Kristin Hersh)
Works In Progress Version:
Kissing through the weekend
We can prove we're perfect
On a mattress made of wasted time
A safe hotel room is a catacomb
Nobody cheats you in the dark
Lost flamingos lost their bark
I can see myself and I'm eating out of your hand
On a carpet made of everything
A safe hotel room is a catacomb
Nobody wants you after dark
Lost flamingos lost their bark
I'm still waiting, I'm still here
Is that how come you're so mad?
I want all you never had
Your nose is broken, but your mouth is working
There's a rainbow on the bathroom wall
A safe hotel room is a catacomb
Nobody loses in the dark
Lost flamingos lost their bark
I'm still waiting, I'm still here
Is that how come you're so mad?
I want all you never had
