letra de strip mall celebrity - jeremy francoeur

Loading...

[verse 1]
the cola company resides by the railroad
and like clockwork each day, the commuter rail rockets away
and the offices fizz and the bottles explode
no-one knows where it all goes
when the carbon all overflows

[verse 2]
cheryl’s chevrolet is always tucked away
her husband asks her to take off the cover
and let the neighbors see it displayed
but she feels complete just looking down the street
at the building gushing foamy spray
for the rumbling trains make her shudder
but, like any other, she lives on the day to day
no-one knows where it all goes
the nerve she had before hubby’s ego overflows
oh, everyone knows how much it blows
‘cause now, every week, she pleasure-seeks and goes

[chorus 1]
“they all want my autograph
“‘cause i don’t pay in cash”
“a strip mall celebrity”
“this is the easy life”
“husband, child and wife”
“with every step i leave receipts”
“receipts, receipts”
“strip mall celebrity”

[post-chorus 1]
take me to hallowed ground
where they’ll take you to the hollowed ground
years from now
years from now

[verse 3]
tony takes the train into town to balance all the tills
he stocks his suitcase full, feels the trigger as he pulls
and makes pennies out of pills
no-one knows where it all goes
when the veins can’t hold the blood, and the skin overflows

[bridge]
oh, the sky diamonds did him in
mafia metropolitan
survived by gold digger, bookie wh-r-
keeps up the storefront, minus the store

[chorus 2]
they can’t take her autograph if she pays in cash
she’s stripped it all gracefully
this is the hardest life, but it’s how you do it right
take careful steps not to leave receipts
be discrete, strip mall celebrity
‘cause money don’t grow on trees
keep up the façade like it’s your godd-mn job
let shopping malls hide your fraud
how are you still around?
‘cause back then, you both vowed…

[post-chorus 2]
“take me to hallowed ground”
“where they’ll take you to the hollowed ground”
“years from now”
“years from now”
“slip a gold coin between your teeth”
“‘cause the ferry ain’t free”
“take me to the hallowed ground”
