Motorcycle Girl

I hear she puts her mascara on with a knife
And it's probably a rumor but
She lights her cigarettes with dynamite
She was just a flame in kitten heels
She was thrown out of high school for selling prescription pills

She got a job at the diner cooking on the front line
She robbed that place and left this old shit hole behind
Then I heard them say she went to Hollywood
She could make it with a face like that, of course she could

'Cause Baby was a motorcycle girl
Born into a mid-sized sedan world
Riding down the road with her tits to the wind
Looking for a chance to make it big

She hitched a ride with a fella with a tattoo of a snake
He said, "Hop on baby, you know I can take you any place"
She said she had a million watt dream
So he took her downtown introduced her to the LA scene
When she finally made a movie
It wasn't what she thought it would be
Still she smiled for the close up giving up all her love for a fee
Big brown eyes dulled by crystal smoke
Baby got a shallow soul but she got a deep, deep throat

'Cause Baby was a motorcycle girl
Born into a mid-sized sedan world
Riding down the road with her tits to the wind
Looking for a chance to make it big

Mama identified the body at the LA county morgue
She said I gave her everything that I could
But Baby always wanted more
When you start at the bottom ain't too far to fall
She said, Why have a little when you can have it all?

'Cause Baby was a motorcycle girl
Born into a mid-sized sedan world
Riding down the road with her tits to the wind
Looking for a chance to make it big
