Love Hotel - $12 Haircut lyrics

You wear your coat bu*toned high I wear my scarf from my eye (?) You know that sometimes I say things I don't mean And between the bars And the sheets And the streets You with your $12 haircut Me with a smoldering flame Sometimes I wonder how we ever manage So long To belong To one and the same Down, down December Down on your knees with your head on the floor Drown, down December The weight of your neck as you turn towards the door You with your slash and burn charm Me with a gardenia pinned on You know that sometimes when I go to bed nights I almost expect To wake up In your arms You with your heart in your mouth I'll hail a cab flying south Well, goodnight and sleep sweet my lover The other The end of the night And the end of the ride (?) Down, down December Down on your knees with your head on the floor Drown, down December The weight of your neck as you turn towards the door Drown, down December The birds are all gone in a pattern of flight (?) Drown, down December Leading you back where Back into You with your $12 haircut Me with a smoldering flame
