Mirrored Shades

Checking out the pretty girls on parade

I'm wearing my mirrored shades

and when the blood runs hot

my heart grows cold

I'm window shopping for fool's gold

Like Hunter S Thompson with sunburn

Illegal shorts and Hawaiian shirt

Hey girls! I've come out to play.

I'm on holiday and I like to have fun

Cutting out eye holes in The Sun

and when the night falls

I am the midnight fox

sandals with pristine white socks.

Like 007 with binoculars

In a darkened corner of the hotel bar

Hey girls! I've come out to play.

But even when this was supposed to make sense

I still felt like the party was on the other side of the fence

I save up these images for later

Follow you up and down the escalator...
