Brenda Kahn - Anesthesia lyrics

She wore a half smile Always laughing in the wind I know it sounds cliched but it's all true I know it sounds cliched but I love you She wore an old black trenchcoat To cover up her skin She weren't no fool, she didn't let nobody in Pulled off the highway, they strip searched the van All the cops are so bored in Ashland...Ohio She took a picture of every town that she been through An empty postcard store in her mind's eye And tipped her hat to the pa**ers by I forgot and got the man, Malcom X and Billy Graham They cried out, "I don't know you from Eve, Madam!" And they believe you if you swear you're telling lies And that's the ties by the violence They are clapping their hands Stripped to her senses She wanted to go home Sometimes he'd take her there Sometimes he'd just kept on drinking Sometimes to despair And she wore a half smile Always laughing in the wind I know it sounds cliche by it's all true I know it sounds cliched, but I love you And they believe you if you swear you're telling lies And that's the ties by the violence They are clapping their hands
