Love Hounds

Neon Blonde


Meet me tonight by the bombed out carnival 
We'll hide out where the house of mirrors is smashed up like an icicle field 
We'll hide in the Ferris Wheel car 
And we'll watch from the top as the cop sirens squeal, squeal 
Click! Click! Click! Click! Bang! Bang! 
Went my gun in the convenience store clerk's face 
"Give me all your fucking money" 
My voice quivered 
My hands wavered 
A little kid got it in the face 
He didn't have a chance 

Love Hounds is all we are 
We want it all right now 
Handsome young gentlemen 
Robbing and murdering in the afternoon 
Love Hounds is all we are 
We want it all right now 

Meet me tonight in the abandoned planetarium 
We'll hide in the dark as the fake moons flicker and spark 
Meet me tonight by the burned down subway 
We'll write a burlesque about our bullet-ridden chests 
Click! Click! Click! Click! Bang! Bang! 
Wen my gun in the crowded supermarket 
Now everybody knows our face 
Our picture's in the paper 
Our face is on the camera 
We've got nowhere to go 
We're on the run 

Love hounds is all we are 
We ant it all righ tnow 
A gorgeous wild wonan sings calypso funeral hymns in your getaway subway 
Love hounds is all we are 
We want it all right now 

Electrocuted streets, electrocuted city 
We've bloomed from liars to theives 
We make guitars sound pretty 
Electrocuted streets, electrocuted city 
We've bloomed from lovers to pornographers... 
We've bloomed from murderers to mass-murderers 

You know all I ever wanted was a little money in my pocket and my face on the 5 o'clock news 

Love Hounds is all we are 
We want it all right now 
We're swinging from the trees like pinatas for police to crack and eat and chew 
Love Hounds is all we are 
We want it all right now.
