Lloyd Cole And The Commotions - Rattlesnakes lyrics
rate meJodie wears a hat<br />
Although it hasn't rained for six days<br />
She says, "A girl needs a gun these days<br />
Hey, on account of all the rattlesnakes"<br />
<br />
She looks like Eve Marie Saint<br />
In on the waterfront<br />
She reads Simone de Beauvoir<br />
In her American circumstance<br />
<br />
She's less than sure if her heart has come<br />
To stay in San Jose<br />
And her never born child still haunts her<br />
As she speeds down the freeway<br />
<br />
As she tries her luck with the traffic police<br />
Out of boredom more than spite<br />
She never finds no trouble, she tries too hard<br />
She's obvious despite herself<br />
<br />
She looks like Eve Marie Saint<br />
In on the waterfront<br />
She says, all she needs is therapy, yeah<br />
All you need is, love is all you need<br />
<br />
Jodie never sleeps<br />
'Cause there are always needles in the hay<br />
She says, "A girl needs a gun these days<br />
Hey, on account of all the rattlesnakes"<br />
<br />
She looks like Eve Marie Saint<br />
In on the waterfront<br />
As she reads Simone de Beauvoir<br />
In her American circumstance<br />
<br />
Her heart, heart's like crazy paving<br />
Upside down and back to front<br />
She says, "Ooh, it's so hard to love when<br />
Love was your great disappointments"
