Orinoco - Seattle lyrics

(Interlude) No need to lie about a gutter life Open your mind to a long hot summer night (Piano rhythm) Dolly dagger called me a liar for kissin girls under rainbow bridge Love or confusion got me choosin Women or one rainy wish (Verse) Let's go back to '83 To the ol town that had raised me Long since escapin a belly bu*ton window Had my hair shakin in the wind slow Through crosstown traffic I was cruisin wild With the Spanish castle magic of a voodoo child Tryin to hit on the foxey ladies Thinkin, "she's so fine" But they were actin awfully shady And I screamed, "how could it be oh why?" I said to one, "come to my place I lead you follow" She replied, "I'm fine gotta go for the night wait til tomorrow?" "Besides you're so mysterious, when it comes to somethin as bold as love are you even experienced?" I felt kickin in and then wept in manic depression I allowed my emotions to stand at attention I couldn't hold it in as I sat on the curb crying Up above I see the flocks of night birds flying It was a very rainy day, I wanted to dream away Camouflage the pain away, and just go off and leave today I traveled the land Arrive at a watchtower go up to the top and make castles from sand And while gods made love and had obscene fun I picked off angels with Joe's machine gun Delivered words of wisdom as I played in an electric church And won't leave til my worries and stress is left in the dirt When I exited the holy building I turned around To see the sacred stylish house burnin down But the weird thing as it burned in a blaze The smoke and fumes turned to purple haze Among the casualties was a midnight lamp My optics near popped out the sockets Because through the dim light land Just straight ahead Like a hot meal she was blazin red Sexy signs in those gypsey eyes She said, "we gotta live together call me little miss lover" "I've got an abusive man I wanna leave em And seems you need a little helper to show you true freedom" She noticed me get nervous and told me, "you're actin funny" "yeah I don't know why" But don't act so surprised I'm not one of these low life guys" Watching the moon turn the tides And the electric church burn through the night As we clutch up in an awkward and tangled manner We look up to see.... The fire works and star spangled banners (Outro) Fly oh fly sweet angel...... Through the sky
