Have To Explode |
Tile floor of the bathroom |
Scrubbed clean and bright |
Checkerboard white and gray |
Towels from the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Kingston, Jamaica |
I can still see the rust-colored stains today |
The stage is set: |
Someone’s gonna do something someone else will regret |
I speak in smoke signals and you answer in code |
The fuse will have to run out sometime |
Something here will eventually have to explode, have to explode |
You and me, lying on the tile floor |
Trying to keep cool, restless all night |
Sweating out the poison as the temperature climbs |
Staring up, up at the hundred-watt light that burns above |
Name one thing about us two anyone could love |
We roll out the red carpet when rotten luck comes down the road |
5, 4, 3, 2, 1--watch for the flash |
Something here will eventually have to explode, have to explode |
