Valium

歌词

Well, I'm at a motel on the border of Utah and Colorado

There's an old John Wayne movie on, I think it's John Wayne

The bride is being carried away on horseback

And into the darkening horizon

The soft murmur of strings and the lowing of distant cattle

Is like valium for the national conscious

Valium

In this warmly beating heart

My happiness is touch and go

Kind of like this motel's HBO

Been sitting here flipping through the channels

A presidential debate

A split second later, a picture perfect dinner emerges from an oven

Yeah, that rattle snake never stood a chance

Against the likes of Annie Oakley

Valium

In this warmly beating heart

But the night is too silent to sleep

So I'm standing now in the dust of the road, contemplating heaven

I must have been lost on some kind of excursion up the Colorado

I think her name was Marilyn

But I don't remember anything else about her

Except that her hair smelled of gunpowder

That's it for tonight, signing off

Signing off

Marilyn

In this warmly beating heart

Valium

In this warmly beating heart

(Warmly beating heart)

In this warmly beating heart
