Heartworms

Mildenhall

공유하기
At fifteen we had
to leave the States again
Dad was stationed
at an RAF base they
called Mildenhall
Black moss on
a busted wall
The cobblestones
made it hard to skate
I thought my flattop
was so new wave
Until it melted away
in the Suffolk rain
Well god damn,
you miss the USA

Then a kid in class
passed me a tape
An invitation,
not the hand of fate

I guess my shoes said
I might relate
Somehow she knew
I'd like to stay up waiting
with her in the cold
For cheap beer
and rock 'n roll
Which in time put lots
of things in my mind

A kid in class passed
me a tape
We saw some bands
down at the corn exchange

I wonder where my sister
was that night
Back at home
under the tanning bed lights
I can still see the glow
Strange rays from
her window
Each night,
as I was skating home
Started messing
with my dad's guitar
Taught me some chords
just to start me off
Whittling away on
those rainy days
And that's how we get
to where we are now

A kid in class
passed me a tape
A band called The Jesus
and The Mary Chain

I started messing
with my dad's guitar
He taught me some
chords just to start me off
Whittling away on
all of those rainy days
And that's how we get
to where we are now
And that's how we get
to where we are now
