12 Piedmont Cemetery by the promiscuous bisexuals

in a sudden hail of sparks in an unfamiliar night in a whisper
crumbled walls appear in ghostly magic light
though analysis came knocking echoes danced inside your heart
but the moment they all stopped you felt the train begin and i

would not bet against you bet the house on me
does your full house beat my inside straight girl oh no
we just might get lucky we just might

can you hear the slow notes ringing out like a lazy wisp of smoke
like the world just rent asunder like the time you overload
and they catch you dripping out your very salty liquid soul
but remember them you cannot but like nothing else you’ll know

and i would not bet against you bet the house on me
does your full house beat my inside straight girl
oh no we just might get lucky we just might

if you see me standing tonight by a table don’t get too close to me
if you feel that the odds are tipping in your favor
don’t lay down on me

now i wasn’t quite too clear was it the parked cop or the saab
and she never grabbed the wheel because she
knew she could not rock
so i led her by the hand into that spooky headstone mall
and before the night was over ‘know we we revived them all
and i

would not bet against you bet the house on me
does your full house beat my inside straight girl
oh no we just might get lucky
we just might --what is your favorite card.
