The Desert Babbler

Lyrics for The Desert Babbler

It's New Year's Eve California's gonna kill you soon Bar stow boys Bug eyes in the shadow of the moon Black houses in the hills and roadside haunts Dying for a place to fall apart Who knew what you could learn to live without Mother Mary's lying in your mouth, now Back home, the kitchen's warm with Christmas wine And every girl has got an axe to grind You live to look for hell, man But you're far from the hard light tonight (Pa-pada, pa, pa, pa, pa, pada) (Pa-pada, pa, pa, pa, pa, pada) So quietly we lost another year The desert put a babbler in your ear He will find a way to not miss you again Bar stow boys all spit into the wind now Back home, the hammer always has to fall Cross is barely hanging on the wall Some day I know you'll never leave me But we're far from the hard light tonight (Pa-pada, pa, pa, pa, pa, pada) na, na, na (Pa-pada, pa, pa, pa, pa, pada) whoa, oh Whoa, oh (pa-pada, pa, pa, pa, pa, pada) (Pa-pada, pa, pa, pa, pa, pada)
