ASPHALT LADY

ASPHALT LADY

1. ASPHALT LADY

ASPHALT LADY

(verse 1)

static on my end of the telephone

in shock of what just happened

I guess you're not my girlfriend

and I'm not your boyfriend anymore

did you take him back to your place?

did you kill my heart with a pierce?

I probably should stay on track

I don't need answers to these questions

those sweet words you said

with a wink

were like roses with thorns

pretty but lies

(chorus)

yeah, you are just an asphalt lady

rough, tough, terrible news, and gritty too

yeah, I like them bad all the way down to the bone

but with your heart of stone

caution told me to stay away

I played anyway

is it bad I like the hurt?

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I guess there's pain in pleasure

you're good with an eraser

any trace of me was gone by the next day

I used to like that nothing got in your way

it's suspicious how you always had a plot

it was cool to me

you had to look over your shoulder a lot

now I see why

(chorus)

yeah, you are just an asphalt lady

you're a thief that steals love in the night

yeah, you'll claim to be an asphalt lady

you'll find pride in your title

you want to be big but you're so little

I lick my lips in anticipation

make me high

(end chorus)

(chorus)

yeah, you are just an asphalt lady

rough, tough, terrible news, and gritty too

yeah, I like them bad all the way down to the bone

but with your heart of stone

caution told me to stay away

I lick my lips in anticipation

make me high

(end chorus)
