Drag Queens In Limousines |
| I hated high school, I prayed it would end |
| The jocks and their girls, it was their world, I didn’t fit in |
| Mama said, «Baby, it’s the best school that money can buy |
| Hold your head up, be strong, c’mon Mary, try.» |
| I stole mama’s car on a Sunday and left home for good |
| Moved in with my friends in the city, in a bad neighborhood |
| Charles was a dancer, he loved the ballet |
| And Kimmy sold pot and read Kerouac and Hemingway |
| Drag queens in limousines |
| Nuns in blue jeans |
| Dreamers with big dreams |
| All took me in |
| Charlie and I flipped burgers to cover the rent |
| And Bourbons at happy hour for thirty-five cents |
| One day before work we got drunk and danced in the rain |
| They fired us both |
| They said, «Don't y’all come back here again.» |
| Drag queens in limousines |
| Nuns in blue jeans |
| Dreamers with big dreams |
| All took me in |
| My dad went to college, and he worked for the state |
| He never quit nothing and he wanted me to graduate |
| My brother and sister both play in the marching band |
| They tell me they miss me, but I know they don’t understand |
| Sometimes you got do, what you gotta do |
| And pray that the people you love, will catch up with you |
| Yeah drag queens in limousines |
| Nuns in blue jeans |
| Dreamers with big dreams |
| Poets and AWOL marines |
| Actors and barflies |
| Writers with dark eyes |
| Drunks that philosophize |
| These are my friends |
