STEPHEN MALKMUS & THE JICKS
"Houston Hades"

I could see you falling in love
Every day people need love
With all their better halves, do the math
Everybody needs it long enough to let it go

If Houston's Hades for Houston ladies
With all those truck huggers, gun luggers
Now you gotta have their babies-No!

This town is so impressive from a distance
Listen, boy, I'm talkin' to you

Blessed with Noblesse Oblige
She's your queen most of the days
As for the other ones, it's no fun to harp on it-
Everybody's got their days

If love is Hades for all you Slim Shadys
It's no wonder he smashes guitars
Turn the stage into a cool crime scene

It sounds so impressive from a distance
Take it up a notch or two

Turn it away, turn it away, turn it away-hey
Turn it away, turn it away, turn it away-hey
Turn it away, turn it away, turn away 'cause it falls apart

Turn it away, turn it away, turn it away-hey
Turn it away, turn it away, turn it away-hey
Turn it away, turn it away, turn away 'cause it falls apart
