| Cars hiss by my window | |
|---|
The cars hiss by my window like the waves down on the beach
The cars hiss by my window like the waves down on the beach
I got this girl beside me but she's out of reach
Headlight through my window shining on the wall
Headlight through my window shining on the wall
Can't hear my baby though I call and call
(All right! Wow!)
Window started trembling with a sonic boom
Window started trembling with a sonic boom - boom
Ah, cold girl I'll kill you in a darkened room
(Yeah, wow!
Right!
Right on!)
| L.A. Woman | |
|---|
(One! Two! One, two, three!)
Well, I just got into town about an hour ago
Took a look around, see which way the wind blow
Where the little girls in their Hollywood bungalows
Are you a lucky little lady in the City of Light?
Or just another lost angel -
City of Night
City of Night
City of Night
City of Night
Wow!
Come on!
L.A. Woman
L.A. Woman
L.A. Woman, Sunday afternoon
L.A. Woman, Sunday afternoon

Drive through your suburbs
Into your blues
Into your blues - yeah!
Into your blue-blue blues
Into your blues
Oh... yeah!
I see your hair is burning
Hills are filled with fire
If they say I never loved you
You know they are a liar
Driving down your freeway
Midnight alleys roam
Cops in cars, the topless bars
Never saw a woman -
So alone
So alone, yeah
So alone
So alone
Motel Money Murder Madness
Let's change the mood from glad to sadness

And then he'll teach you how to
Find yourself

Friendly strangers came to town
All the people put them down
But the women loved their ways
A-come again some other day
Like the gentle rain

What are they doing in the Hyacinth House

To please the lions - yeah - this day?
I need a brand new friend who doesn't bother me

I see the bathroom is clear
I think that somebody's near
I'm sure that someone is following me
Oh yeah
Why did you throw the Jack of Hearts away?

It was the only card in the deck that I had left to play

And I'll say it again -
I need a brand new friend

| The WASP (Texas Radio & The Big Beat) | |
|---|
I wanna tell you about Texas Radio and the Big Beat
Comes out of the Virginia swamps
Cool and slow
With plenty of precision
And a back beat
Narrow and hard to master
Some call it heavenly in it's brilliance
Others mean and rueful of the western dream
I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft
We have constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping
This is the land where the Pharaoh died
The negroes in the forest, brightly feathered
And they are saying:
'Forget the night!
Live with us in forests of azure!
Out here on the perimeter there are no stars
Out here we is stoned
Immaculate
Now listen to this:
I'll tell you about the heartache
I'll tell you about the heartache and the loss of God
I'll tell you about the hopeless night
The meager food for souls forgot
Tell you about the maiden with wrought-iron soul
I'll tell you this:
No eternal reward will forgive us now
For wasting the dawn
I'll tell you about Texas Radio and the Big Beat
Soft driven, slow and mad
Like some new language
Now listen to this:
I'll tell you about Texas
I'll tell you about the Texas Radio
I'll tell you about the hopeless night
The wandering o' the western dream
Tell you about the maiden with wrought-iron soul
| Riders on the storm | |

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm
There's a killer on the road
His brain is squirming like a toad
Take a long holiday
Let your children play
If you give this man a ride
Sweet family will die
Killer on the road
Yeah...
Girl, you gotta love your man
Girl, you gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man
Yeah...
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
