The Battered Ornaments - Rainy Taxi Girl lyrics

She came from the country to work in the city She wasn't fantastic, but she was kind of pretty She tried to be so evil in the nicest possible way She rationed herself to one man a day But all the black stallions and her ...... of gold grain I said they'll never never never never put her life together again She's been high with the wealthiest faces in town She's been with the poorest when they were right down She slept with the stars and out under the moon I said she's danced and she's danced to every conceivable tune But all the big doctors and the big business brains I said they'll never never never never put her life together again Now she don't close for lunch and she don't close for tea She don't get alarmed by your hand on her knee She doesn't feel a thing and she doesn't feel proud When this rain on her mind and she's crying out loud But the motorway bus and the night express train I said they'll never never never never put her love together again There's rain in her taxi and there's rain in her eyes There's rain on her footsteps and there's rain on her lies There's rain on her windows, and I'll take a bet I said the night of her mind is the rainiest yet But all the red racing cars and the beautiful young men I said they'll never never never never put her life together again I said they'll never never never never put her life together again I said they'll never never never never put her life together again
