Penny-Ante Avenue

(album: Mutations - 2018)

Mister Oblivious, I'm sorry when I say
The company you keep is keeping you in disarray
Being alone is scary, but she's just so ordinary
Every little move sucks the air out of the room
So I hate to say it but your lady is a snake
And through my veins I feel the weight of all her venom
I think she'd make a lovely pair of boots

When she gets gone
You'll have every little thing you want
You can do everything you want to do
You won't ever have to hear her talk
And you'll never miss this feeling
Never miss this feeling

Listen to me, grab your jacket and leave
Get in the car and turn the radio on
Listen to me, grab your jacket and leave
Get in the car and turn the radio on
Cause you'll never miss this feeling
Never miss this feeling

Tonight we're gonna light up this whole town
So turn your bottle goddamn upside-down
We're spreading like confetti in the streets
And everybody knows which way to be
I know it feels like she's get her claws into you
But it'll get better when you let her slip away
Down Penny Ante Avenue

Listen to me, grab your jacket and leave
Get in the car and turn the radio on
Listen to me, grab your jacket and leave
Get in the car and turn the radio on
Cause you'll never miss this feeling
Never miss this feeling

Tonight we're gonna light up this whole town
So turn your bottle goddamn upside-down
We're spreading like confetti in the streets
And everybody knows which way to be
I know it feels like she's get her claws into you
But it'll get better when you let her slip away
Down Penny Ante Avenue

Tonight we're gonna light up this whole town
So turn your bottle goddamn upside-down
We're spreading like confetti in the streets
And everybody knows which way to be
I know it feels like she's get her claws into you
But it'll get better when you let her slip away
Down Penny Ante Avenue
Down Penny Ante Avenue
Down Penny Ante Avenue
