|
Billy was a vampire |
|
Carving out an empire |
|
Strolling pirates' alley in the middle of the night |
|
Buy a round of cocktails |
|
Spinning sordid fables in the twilight |
|
That's all right |
|
Scattered words that matter |
|
It's a disaster in the making |
|
Take the time to smell the leaves beneath the trees |
|
( smile, smile, smile) |
|
That's all right |
|
Chorus: |
|
My whole life has gone haywire |
|
I'm just a blade bending in your shade |
|
For your love i'm a vampire |
|
Strolling the ways of esplanade |
|
I headed up to pittsburgh |
|
Heard you could get a pretty god sandwich |
|
For fifteen and a dime |
|
Ooh, what i miss that old stretch of road |
|
Down to the bayou |
|
In the middle of the night |
|
Guilt by association |
|
The mere smell of speculation conjures up for hell |
|
That's all right |
|
Feel the touch of oil from the tankers upon the breeze |
|
( smile, smile, smile) |
|
Yeah, that's all right |
|
(chorus) |
|
That's my whole life in a nutshell |
|
Take it as you will |
|
I can hear that old brass band |
|
Playing our song down the hill |
|
That's all right |
|
Won't you smile, smile, smile. that's all right |
|
Won't you smile, smile, smile. that's all right |
|
Won't you smile the smile |
|
That fills the room with an independent light |
|
But that's all right |
|
(repeat 4 times - fade) |
