Dallas - Silver Jews

I passed out on the fourteenth floor

The CPR was so erotic

A blizzard blew in through the door

And little glowing cum buckets in her ankles

O Dallas, you shine with an evil light

O Dallas, you shine with an evil light

How’d you turn a billion steers

Into buildings made of mirrors?

And why am I drawn to you tonight?

Once you taste the geometry of a church in a cul-de-sac

You’re gonna wanna sit with the bad kids in the back

Cruising down Commerce

Killing time in the blazing sun

Is it true your analyst was a placekicker for the Falcons?

We saw B.B. King on General Hospital

In the Oak Cliff dram house where we stayed

And when Clancy whipped her with his belt buckle

He cleaned her cuts and then we prayed

O Dallas, you shine with an evil light

Don’t you know that God stays up all night?

How’d you turn a billion steers

Into buildings made of mirrors?

And why am I drawn to you tonight?

Watching the makeup girls make out with the mannequins

«Hey boys, supper’s on me, our record just went aluminum»

Poor as a mouse every morning

Rich as a cat every night

Some kind of strange magic happens

When the city turns on her lights
