Carnival Of Pills

It was midnight when she called
 Throttled in remorse
 No tears, just confessions
 And she (called it new over her sins)
 So I knew it was a lie
 But I asked for a new rendition
 No-oh-oh-oh
 Alberta stood in flaw
 She asked for the shoe to drop
 Nervous and delightful
 She never wanna see those hoods again
 Who waited at the county fair
 Vainness ends so frightful
 No-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
 Oh, as she's standing so
 Easily misled she holds
 Her carnival of pills
 And she slowly makes her bed
 His name was known by few
 He waited on her porch
 His Buick in the driveway
 His leather jacket labelled "Norm"
 His tattoos known to lie;
 Son, just drop her on the highway
 No-oh-oh-oh
 She got into the car
 He offered her a drink
 She said she ain't got time for pity
 He stopped and picked a pack of smokes
 The tendrils dancing in the car
 As their burning forms were sitting
 No-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh

 And as she sits there alone in his car
 She holds a carnival of pills
 That she pressed against her heart
 They found her facing down
 On Highway 55
 (Pins in teen,) then deconstructed
 And none was more the wiser then
 To not say her name; She lied
 Thoroughly destructed
 No-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
 And as she lies there
 Her smile looks amused
 She holds her carnival of pills
 No glade in the hand of doom
 And as she lies there
 Her smile looks amused
 She holds her carnival of pills, man
 No glade in the hand of doom
