Lyrics

She called herself Betty
She wore black jeans and a feather in her hair like an Indian
I took the pill and slipped it underneath my tongue
You took yours and passed me the bottle
The hotel bedspread was a mess of colors
Looked like somebody had thrown up
Outside, day was coming in
Betty had long hair on her forearms
And a tattoo of the Neubauten logo on the back of her right shoulder
My jaw ached from grinding my teeth
You and Betty just laughed and laughed
I looked at you and you looked at her
I felt sick to my stomach
You nudged me in the ribs
Caught my eye and gave me a wink
The colors on the bedspread began to move
And together we began to swim inside out
How I wish that I could feel that sound always
You know I run around all the time, baby, so lonely
My battlin' gets so far out, far away
Always, always
There was a knock at the door
I was so messed up
It was so late
I was convinced that we shouldn't move
But the music was so loud
How I wish that I could feel that sound always
You know I run around all the time, baby, so lonely
My battlin' gets so far out, far away
Always, always
It was then I realized that I couldn't go back
The telephone rang
It was the front desk
You just gotta tap your heels together
And say that there's no place like home
There's no place like home
I don't have that kind of power
Never did see Betty again
There's no place like home
And the years went by
