BOYS FOR PELE
Lyrics

 

B-SIDES

Putting the Damage On
 
Glue stuck to my shoe
Does anyone know why you play with an orange rind
You say you packed my things and divided what was mine
You’re off to the mountain top
I say her skinny legs could use sun
But now I’m wishing for my best impression
Of my best Angie Dickinson
But now I’ve got to worry cause boy you still look pretty when you’re putting the damage on
Yea when you’re putting the damage on
Take it hey, hey, ooh, hey
Don’t make me scratch on you door
 
I never left you for a Banjo
I only just turned around for a poodle and a corvette
And my impression
Of my best Angie Dickinson
But now I’ve got to worry cause boy you still look pretty when you’re putting the damage on
Pretty when you’re putting the damage on
Take it hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
 
I’m trying not to move
It’s just your ghost passing through
I said I’m trying not to move
It’s just your ghost passing through
It’s just your ghost passing through
And now I’m quite sure
 
There’s a light in your platoon
I never seen a light move like yours can do to me
So now I’m wishing for my best impression
Of my best Angie Dickinson
But now I’ve got to worry cause boy you still look pretty to me
But I’ve got a place to go
I’ve got a ticket to your late show
And now I’ve got to worry cause even still you sure are pretty when you’re putting the damage on yes
When you’re putting the damage on you’re just so pretty
When you’re putting the damage on
