Humiliation

Lyrics for Humiliation

I survived the dinner Then the air went thinner I retired to the briars by the pool, it gets so loud If I die this instant Taken from a distance They would probably list it down Among other things 'round town Got my rings around me I got baby to pound me I see stars and go weak My baby cries and lays me down In the skies over black Venice I see eyes of a white menace The surprise of the week Is that I never heard the sound All the L.A. women Fall asleep while swimming I got paid to fish 'em out And then one day I lost the job And I cried a little I got fried a little Then she laid her eyes on mine And she said, "Babe, you're better off" I got my rings around me I got baby to pound me I see stars and go weak My baby cries and lays me down In the skies over black Venice I see eyes of a white menace The surprise of the week Is that I never heard the sound Tunnel vision lights my way Leave my little life today As the free-fall advances I'm the moron who dances Ah I was teething on roses I was in guns and noses Ah Under the withering white skies of humiliation Under the withering white skies of humiliation Tunnel vision lights my way Leave my little life today Tunnel vision lights my way Leave my little life today She wore blue velvet Said she can't help it She wore blue velvet Said she can't help it She wore blue velvet Said she can't help it
