I have a bad habit of falling for insane women. I dream of somehow guiding them into calmer waters, but of course the opposite always happens and I'm dragged out into the middle of their raging sea. Then before I can even attempt to save them they meet some beefy guy with an eye-patch and I'm screwed again. (This track would be better classed as "Semi-serious"...)
lyrics
This little girl comes up to me
And mister, I apologize
She seemed so innocent
Skinny hips and Bambi eyes
Pale as the man in the moon
Talking ‘bout some people
Who might find her soon
No matter what you think
No matter what you do
Never fall in love with someone
Crazier than you
She’s got this photograph
She’s keeping from the CIA
Somebody famous
Wearing what looks like a negligee
Time for the wages of sin:
“Boy, I need a favor
That’s where you come in…”
Chorus
Count yourself lucky
You still can fly
Count yourself lucky
You’re too cool to die
Everybody’s got somebody
Living in the hole inside their head
Who bangs the Underwood
And writes the words you wish you never said
And all the things you swore
You’d never really do
Oh, come on, mister
I know you been there, too
Chorus
Count yourself lucky
You’re too cool to die
