Bakersfield
I cut my face leaving this city
on the sharpest words I think I ever did speak
Now, I don't mind apologies all the time
But I swear I'll never, ever say I'm sorry
We caught a lucky break on Valentines Day
I bought a two way ticket and a hotel where we could stay
Meet me here in Bakersfield, halfway
We could settle down and talk the day away
With no self control,
no question why,
no giving up,
no saying goodbye
no reason to ever stop
loving you
A stranger called on the telephone
it was a dirty prank played by a local boy
Nothing here interest me except you, my dear
So lets pack our bags and never come back again
But we made love late into the morning
I watched you changing in the mirror
The teddy bear I bought was tossed in the corner
We spilled some red wine and caught it on camera
With no self control
no question why,
no giving up,
no saying goodbye
no reason to ever stop
loving you
No letting go,
no nights alone
no kiss and run,
except with tongue
no reason to ever stop
loving you

Rerun
He's a B-flat whole tone scale kind of guy
who wouldn't know it lest he tried
Never really touched the keys with feeling
until he pressed them next to me
He picked a grand D5 out of the list
A flabby kick, a tight snare, and ride
sequenced them with clever whim
laughing at this silly song
A few suggestions here and there like
subract the sounds as they rerun
shape the length of the pattern clip
and remember to press the song button
Flew the coop, leaving the nest behind
Sped up across the twenty-four
heard the call of our stomachs growl
Seeking provisions wrapped in flour
