Girls In The Backroom (Album) - Ike Reilly[00:00:00]

I hear your father hes a rich man[00:00:13]

And that his father was a rich one too[00:00:16]

And that your real mother waited tables[00:00:19]

With cruel eyes and beautiful hands[00:00:22]

And no one would ever doubt it[00:00:25]

'Cause no one looks richer than you[00:00:28]

As your droppin' your brother at the front door[00:00:31]

That led into the backroom[00:00:34]

I hear the girls in the backroom[00:00:36]

Will just about finish you off[00:00:40]

Yeah they'll tempt you and distract you[00:00:43]

Say things like Baby turn your head and cough[00:00:46]

And the promise of a happy ending[00:00:49]

Is right in the palm of their hands[00:00:52]

They all seem to get off sending[00:00:55]

A message like Good luck leaving town[00:00:58]

You couldn't get out if you wanted to anyhow[00:01:02]

I hear your brother he's a loaded pistol[00:01:06]

Some kind of former ranger he's got a disability check[00:01:09]

From his VA stuck in the chamber[00:01:15]

Still the roadside bombs are bursting[00:01:18]

And forever he'll be thirsty[00:01:21]

Said the Gulf was f**kin' murky[00:01:24]

But he had to drink it anyway[00:01:26]

I saw him blowin' the old marine band[00:01:29]

With a sharp royal Purple Heart[00:01:32]

Purple Heart rattling in his bedpan[00:01:34]

You know he kills a lot of time[00:01:36]

In the parking lots of the shops[00:01:37]

That are kinda over near the college bars[00:01:39]

Lookin' at all the mothers dressed like daughters[00:01:41]

Doin' the laundry of their daughters[00:01:44]

Who are all dressed like stars[00:01:45]

But no one really ever looks him in the eyes[00:01:48]

When they pass him by they all[00:01:50]

Got their heads bowed down[00:01:51]

I guess that they heard for a while[00:01:53]

He was stealin' ladies lingerie[00:01:55]

Wearin' that shit all over town[00:01:57]

I hear the girls in the backroom[00:02:00]

The questions were shakin' him down[00:02:04]

They were still angry about the vacuum[00:02:07]

That he had smashed when he[00:02:09]

Came back to town[00:02:11]

And the promises of happy endings[00:02:13]

For tonight I'm sure are through[00:02:16]

As the girls were[00:02:18]

Down on their hands and their knees in the glass[00:02:19]

Pickin up springs and screws[00:02:22]

Ohh pickin' up springs and screws[00:02:25]

Ahh but girl I love you madly[00:02:29]

Sure does that money from your daddy[00:02:33]

But I don't give a f**k for your family[00:02:35]

But for you I would do life[00:02:38]

But me and your brother we've been cool[00:02:42]

Since before he left for jump school[00:02:45]

But now that people know I'm with you[00:02:48]

They treat me like some crazy f**ker too[00:02:50]

Good luck leavin' town[00:02:53]

They say you couldn't get out[00:02:55]

If you wanted to anyhow[00:02:57]

I hear the girls in the backroom[00:02:59]

Yeah they're talkin' about me in code[00:03:03]

They're all treating me wicked love's like a time bomb[00:03:06]

Getting ready to explode[00:03:09]

And people always ask me questions[00:03:12]

About your brother and what he's seen[00:03:15]

Where he's been and where I think he's goin' to[00:03:18]

I just say[00:03:21]

I last saw him fleeing the scene[00:03:22]

Behind the wheel of a skin-graft limousine[00:03:24]

I hear the girls in the backroom[00:03:40]

They'll just about finish you off[00:03:44]

I hear the girls in the backroom[00:03:46]

They're talking about me in code[00:03:50]

I hear the girls in the backroom[00:03:53]

They'll just about finish you off[00:03:57]

I hear the girls in the backroom[00:03:59]
