The Badlees - A Little Faith/Midway Motel lyrics

Martha's wearing blue jeans And she's praying for the poor Two midgets shop for Halloween At a Salvation Army store And a widow with a quarter Buys herself a plastic ring A little faith is a precious thing Santa in December The circus in July The fat man he has mouths to feed Just like you and I And a family of agnostics Attends a christening A little faith is a precious thing Tonight meet me at the graveyard Up on Teaberry Hill We'll lie upon the ground and dream Where truth and superstition Are just a reasoning away And nothing is ever as it seems Like a seed that grows 'Neath fallen leaves She wouldn't let them keep her down Left her parents' home Moved to the country Now her children play in the backyard Near where the cooling towers steam A little known faith A little known faith A little known faith is a precious thing [Silence for about 1 minute] [Instrumental Interlude] Construction got rained out today now baby No one will know you're missing until four Get your children off to school Meet me by the in-ground pool And wear that leather dress I like so well To the Midway Motel The Midway Motel The Midway Motel Shower always full of lead now baby But there's a telephone and two twin beds for 37 bucks so Wash your hair beneath the eaves I'll push the beds together Now let's have ourselves a little R&R as well At the Midway Motel The Midway Motel The Midway Motel The Midway Motel The Midway… [Instrumental Bridge] Carpet fresh and diesel fumes now baby Mixed quite nice with your perfume now baby And a couple staying next to here Seems to have the same idea I guess that everybody has a service they can sell In the Midway Motel The Midway Motel The Midway Motel The Midway Motel Close the door sir and the key Back at home by 3:15 Well I know that cla**ic story not to tell From the Midway Motel Tell Tell
