Rescue


I rode a western wind with a girl over to her mother's
In the backyard stars shone brighter than the others
That I rarely see through the smog through the haze that covers
The home that I used to live in

Yeah, yeah, we kind of sort of knew what was gonna happen
When she put her number down on a restaurant napkin
And she said goodbye, think the words were when you're back in
Town let's have each other again
Well I'll come around and see you again

Like Jessica Rabbit
She collects bad habits
Gets her drinks for free
Animated vixen
Stole Cupid's arrow
And came to rescue me
In the blink of an eyelid
My lid opened up
And I could see
That she'd come to rescue me

I tasted southern sin with a girl who was just perfection
Had a two room condo back in a wealthy section
Of the Florida flatlands where she had me kept in
A wicked trance for a day

Yeah, yeah, we kind of sort of knew what was gonna happen
When she and a friend came and met me in Atlanta
I professed my love in an animalistic manner
Like an endless foreign flick
My subtitles were sick

Like Jessica Rabbit
She collects bad habits
Gets her drinks for free
Animated vixen
Stole Cupid's arrow
And came to rescue me
In the blink of an eyelid
My lid opened up
And I could see
That she'd come to rescue me

Yeah, yeah, we kind of sort of saw the sirens coming
She was running toward me wearing almost nothing
And my heart beat skipped when she bent down at the hip
And her lips pressed against mine

Like Jessica Rabbit
She collects bad habits
Gets her drinks for free
Animated vixen
Stole Cupid's arrow
And came to rescue me
In the blink of an eyelid
My lid opened up
And I could see
That she'd come to rescue me

Here she comes to rescue me
I'm not gonna blink 'cause I wanna see
I wanna see her come
Here she comes
Here she comes
