Lyrics Hanover Camera - The Hold Steady

Hanover Camera

The lighting made it look like she’s been captured
Sitting up and staring into space
Suddenly she turned to me and said you seem pretty harmless
The dosage was open for debate
The party with the python in the shower
Heather with the henna on her hands
Once we started mixing it with sodium bicarbonate
We got back stage and hung out with the band
I went down around the Fisherman I was looking for a hook
I was hoping that I’d find something by lunchtime
The coolest thing about her was she had hr own apartment
It’s still an inconvenient plac to die
The party with the python in the shower
Heather with the henna on her hands
Once we started mixing it with sodium bicarbonate
We got back stage and hung out with the band
They said you’re the one that really makes it happen
If you’re ever on the west coast give a shout
The manager asked if we’d break off a little package
The singer put his finger in my mouth
We were up against the miracle
Maxed out every night
Our knees were shot from way too many prayers
I swear I saw soldiers selling single cigarettes
Stationed about halfway up the stairs
