Leather Jacket |
Hundreds of stories before I showed up |
They’d tell them to me and pull photos up |
They’re all connected like a pair of handcuffs |
No one seemed effected that everyone had fucked |
But there was a softness, some kind of understanding |
Those 2am decisions are always shaking landings |
No one ever knew what could be demanded |
Maybe it’s the cards, the cards she was handed |
You called me up from a pay phone |
I said hang tight, I can drive you home |
I pulled on up and with a southern accent |
I offered you my dad’s leather jacket |
I met her at a party, she’d come straight from work |
Complained that the regular were all a bunch of jerks |
She always looked tired but she dazzled as a drunk |
She even pulled off that stupid haircut |
She said «I don’t need a sponsor or the best lover |
Some man that sees me as some fixer-upper». |
The last few years I’ve been running for cover |
Trying to sleep so I can visit my mother" |
You called me up from a pay phone |
I said hang tight, I can drive you home |
I pulled on up and with a southern accent |
I offered you my dad’s leather jacket |
When times were tough in the worst years |
We never knew how to interfere |
Now you’re back and just unpacking |
Those bruised up takers you keep attracting |
In September when it goes off, like some goddamn alarm clock. |
And it hits her like a third shot, conversations she just stares off |
There’s no longer a voice calling, when she goes out, saying |
«I'll be up waiting for you» |
You called me up from a pay phone |
I said hang tight, I can drive you home |
I pulled on up and with a southern accent |
I offered you my dad’s leather jacket |
When times were tough in the worst years |
We never knew how to interfere |
Now you’re back and just unpacking |
Those bruised up takers you keep attracting |
You called me up from a pay phone |
Ouu |
You called me up from a pay phone |
Ouu |
You called me up from a pay phone |
Ouu |
You called me up from a pay phone |
And I said who the fuck uses a payphone |
