lyrics

She's got a checkered past
so she lives in the future
she's all charged up and she's ready to go
electricity flash
as she applies the sutures
to a busted seam in the radio

We came from a place where
love is sacred
We came from a place where it's bought and sold
We made it last
by creating a system
with a one time payment of a heart of gold

You got to slow down
she says
you got to slow down
you keep on screaming round the corners of your life
and one day honey you're bound to spin out

like a freight train crashing
into buckingham palace
is the way she describes the new fashion line
that she wears or she tears
making alterations
so it fits with her personal sense of the times

I gave her the gloves
but she only wears one
holds the spare in it's pair like it's some kind of mace
she threatens some
but she's the favorite of others
when she looks my way boy my heart starts to race

You got to slow down
she says
you got to slow down
you keep on screaming round the corners of your life
and one day honey you're bound to burn out


she has a checkered past
and a week of tomorrows
rose colored glasses and a cup of joe
she picks a mean ukulele when it comes to the solo
the fire marshall has to come and shut down the show
he says..
