I forgot
I forgot I lived
I forgot I lived in luxury
Take a look
‘cross this desert town
never seen, never, never seen such a lit up night
I don’t know
if you can drive this strip
without feeling
all lit up
I been to Cairo with the late wife
you got to go through hell just to get something to eat
They got their markets, its like a train wreck
people yelling in your face and stepping on your feet
Drive up to an A&P and right into a parking lot
got those little arrows just to show you where to go
walk thru those sliding doors, you feel the A.C. on
shiny little vegetables all lined up in a row
I don’t know
if you can drive this strip
without feeling
all lit up
all lit up
I forgot
I forgot the girls
I forgot the girls that keep me sleepy
Venus de Medici
Cocoa Butter Tanya
I think they wanna get rid of me
and they keep this hot, they’re gonna
Flagging me down in the middle of the street
They say, “”Pull over, let’s have some fun.””
I’ll die before I’m ready
‘tween the double yellow lines on Route 91
All Lit Up
I forgot
I forgot I lived
I forgot I lived in luxury
I got a picture of Venus right here in this folder
look at the curves on that Roman shoulder
Tanya lays it down at the edge of the Strip
with a tone that’s not homegrown but definitely flown in
Venus is a rock from the stock of Michealangelo
shipped in the night outta Sarzana Cove
Tanya’s legs are like two limos but her arms are Grecian
my mind’s filling in the blanks, no thanks to the deletion
Venus is noble but she’s mobile; she likes the desert air
She’s showing in the glowing of the neon glare
Tanya was designed to be kind at sixty miles an hour
Venus needs two thousand years, uh, just to take a shower
I don’t know
if you can drive this strip
without feeling
all lit up
