| I’m the neon rat hiding in the palm trees
|
| Watching midwestern tourists guzzle giant martinis
|
| We were part time lovers on prime time TV
|
| Her name was Esmerelda, the smart but sexy type
|
| A young housewife, in Hawaiian mansion alright…
|
| Crystal beaches on TV
|
| Perfume dumped into sea
|
| Bleached smile shaved bikini
|
| Every thing you want but will never be
|
| Her husband was a CEO
|
| She spent her nights all alone
|
| You fall in love with her misery
|
| She’s like a tan version of you with plastic surgery
|
| Enter the sophisticated brute, with VIP attitude
|
| He the recurring character you love to hate, the back door boy
|
| Now I’m the neon rat with a mouth full of grinning sharp dentures
|
| Sleeping in a married woman’s bedcover’s, a televised affair with million
|
| dollar commercials
|
| Yeah this is the 1-hour holiday special
|
| Where Esmerelda’s husband comes home from work and walks in on the two of us in
|
| the shower
|
| He breaks down in tears on the bathroom floor
|
| Close up on his face frowning like a slit open throat
|
| Then cut to a commercial
|
| Crystal Beaches on TV
|
| Sunset on the digital sea
|
| Shaved smiled bleached bikini
|
| Paradise’s legs are spread just out of reach
|
| Those tears streaming down your face
|
| Are dollar signs for the marketing team
|
| Will she leave her bland husband?
|
| You just have to wait till the start of next season
|
| You’ll just have to go back to your job selling lingerie at the shopping mall
|
| Those diets that never work, those blind dates with fucking jerks
|
| Crystal Beaches on TV
|
| Crystal Beaches you’ll never see
|
| Crystal Beaches got you hooked
|
| And I’m the neon rat inside your pocketbook |
