New Coat Of Paint

The detritus of decorating. Best viewed in conjunction with a little Tom Waits.


Let's put a new coat of paint on this lonesome old town
Set 'em up, we'll be knockin' 'em down.
You wear a dress, baby, and I'll wear a tie.
We'll laugh at that old bloodshot moon in that burgundy sky

All your scribbled lovedreams, are lost or thrown away,
Here amidst the shuffle of an overflowing day
Our love needs a transfusion so let's shoot it full of wine
Fishin' for a good time starts with throwin' in your line.

Set 'em up, we'll be knockin' 'em down.
