. I survived the dinner And the air went thinner I retired to the briars by the pool It gets so loud . If I die this instant Taken from a distance They will probably list it down Among other things around town. . Got my rings around me I got baby to pound me I see stars and go weak My baby cries and lays me down . In the skies over black Venice I see eyes of a white menace The surprise of the week Is that I never heard the sound . And all the L.A. women Fall asleep while swimming I got paid to fish her mind And then one day I lost the job . And I cried a little I got fried a little Then she laid her eyes on mine And she said, "Babe, you're better off" . I got my rings around me I got baby to pound me I see stars and go weak My baby cries and lays me down . In the skies over black Venice I see eyes of a white menace The surprise of the week Is that I never heard the sound . Tunnel vision lights my way Leave a little life today . As a free-fall advances I'm the moron who dances Ahhahhhahhhahhhahhahh I was teething on roses I was in guns and noses Ahhahhhahhhahhhahhahh . Under the withering white sky's a humiliation Under the withering white sky's a humiliation . Tunnel vision lights my way Leave a little life today Tunnel vision lights my way Leave a little life today . She wore blue velvet Said she can't help it She wore blue velvet Said she can't help it She wore blue velvet Said she can't help it .
