[00:01.00]Last Dance Rodeo
[00:03.07]Jewel
[00:09.12]
[00:18.83]Your lungs fill up with concrete
[00:22.55]Her voice is all you can hear
[00:24.93]Red lips and a screwdriver
[00:27.63]Wrapped around some mink-clad smear
[00:32.67]And you know that she’s a diamond
[00:36.27]In this damn juke box hell
[00:38.82]’Cause fools gold only fools fools
[00:41.72]In two-bit hotels.
[00:43.39]But she’s cooler than all that
[00:45.10]She’s a real high-class cat
[00:48.17]She’s queen of the last dance rodeo.
[00:53.22]But under the gas lamp
[00:55.19]The air is thick and velvety
[01:01.13]Your bones filled with hunger
[01:04.51]Your heart filled with longing
[01:11.12]You’re no longer human
[01:13.41]You’re an insatiable hole.
[01:16.26]You wanna bury your face forever
[01:18.76]In the navel of her soul
[01:20.57]’Cause you know ...
[01:24.09]All you need is a heart to call home
[01:32.83]All you need is a heart to call home
[01:42.50]That’s all.
[01:46.97]
[01:47.65]Light bulbs, and nylons
[01:51.69]And plastic chandeliers
[01:54.21]Objects are only objects,
[01:56.81]They can’t feel when you’re near.
[02:01.91]
[02:02.26]And tangerine lips
[02:05.63]And lily-white breasts
[02:08.01]These things are eternal
[02:10.17]Inside them humanity rests.
[02:12.79]The skin is like a seashell
[02:14.92]You listen to the soul
[02:16.87]Like an old-time radio show.
[02:22.24]But under the gas lamp
[02:24.82]The air is thick and velvety
[02:28.66]Your bones filled with hunger
[02:33.93]Your heart filled with longing
[02:39.70]You’re no longer human
[02:42.95]You’re an insatiable hole
[02:45.80]You wanna bury your face forever
[02:48.52]In the navel of her soul
[02:50.75]’Cause you know ...
[03:03.10][02:54.21]All you need is a heart to call home
[03:11.91]That’s all
[03:13.15]But don’t wander too far
[03:16.23]On one constant star
[03:18.58]Darkness exists, except where you are
[03:22.80]Your feet are filled with wandering
[03:25.94]They follow your own
[03:27.70]’Cause everywhere you are
[03:29.93]Feels like home
[03:35.29](sax solo)
[04:10.11]So search all you miners
[04:12.84]You hunters of dreams
[04:15.11]Look in the alleyways
[04:17.39]For what you know is not what it seems
[04:23.67]And fame, all you maidens,
[04:27.13]but don’t resist to long
[04:29.68]But at least look behind you
[04:31.50]And see your own shadow’s gone
[04:34.78]Don’t you know it’s the last rodeo
[04:38.65]You gotta find yourself a cowboy
[04:40.79]Or someone to keep you
[04:42.11]Warm when it cold
[04:42.99]But under the gas lamp
[04:45.36]The air is thick and velvety
[04:51.56]Your bones filled with hunger
[04:54.90]Your heart filled with longing
[04:59.46]You’re no longer human
[05:03.88]You’re an insatiable hole.
[05:06.64]You wanna bury your face forever
[05:09.58]In the navel of her soul
[05:11.11]’Cause you know ...
[05:14.38]All you need is a heart to call home
[05:33.02]All you need is a heart to call home
[05:42.19]All you need is a heart to call home
[05:56.01][05:52.40]That’s all
[05:57.66]
[05:58.68]
