Graham Parker & The Figgs - Impenetrable lyrics

I'm in a trailer with some white trash. They're drinkin' beer and smokin' gra** There's a dumb chick with peroxide hair. She's got Axl Rose tattooed on her a** They're holding me up like a trophy in a hall Like a deer skin or a bear's head they bought from the mall I act like I'm with them but I'm behind a wall behind a wall in the darkness CHORUS Impenetrable I can't get inside of it no Impenetrable I ca - ah - ah - ah - an't Impenetrable I wake up in a foreign bed. The hotel is empty the porters are dead The maids are diseased but the manager said: I'll buy you a drink in the bar pal Because you're our last customer. You're our last hope The city's deserted, the Government's broke I act like I'm with him but I'm ready to bolt out through the door into the darkness CHORUS REPEAT Out in the darkness the New Year's crowd howl It's the same celebration for 20 years now I found myself there once alone in a crowd And the rules haven't changed for a minute They're hoisting an effigy up on a pole It's someone I remember, it's someone I know I can't place the face but when the gasoline flows I feel the flames lick round my ankles CHORUS REPEAT
