Sunset Boulevard

Bleeding sun over Day’s Inn Stairways with murderer’s stain Choppers over churches Bibles stack high: Newfound land for a lost child Backpacking among hookers and priests Jesus looks bewildered when the sirens cry Unpack the sins Load up the rum Wrap the night in slimy cold sweat Try to sleep Try to forget The goddamn noise just won’t die Strike a match Shoot out the light Day old love smells bad--- What’s gonna come is up to the dice Be afraid and ready, brother, ‘cause this day won’t come twice Hang up the phone Pick a fight Bloody Mary carries me high Jump for me, baby, & I’d forget your debt I don’t speak your dialect but that’s mighty fine We’re bound together when the ship is sinking fast Paint your face white We’re the brothers in crime I promise you on this bloody night that I’d put you in a nice body bag You came a long way to get this piece of pie Step on the gas Enjoy the ride Spend your laundered cash Don’t blink the eye Be sure to get an eyeful of God’s lie This is Sunset Boulevard where heaven meets hell You don’t have a name Forget your pride This is the oldest freeway not the fair trade Hard boiled virgins with iron thighs Swallow the bullet feign the smile Keep on dreaming till the end of the night Remember--- this is Sunset Boulevard where heaven meets hell ---LTG, '04
