Aimee Mann - Queens of the Summer Hotel

In Mexico

Big veranda, stately trees
Servants bring me fruit and cheese
Flowers bloom and feed their bees
Underneath the Sword of Damocles

And I'm shooting speed
'Cause that's what I do
When I can't get what I need from you
In Mexico

Every Eden has its price
Here you have to pay it twice
Servants bring me beans and rice
But there's snakes in every paradise

'Cause I'm shooting speed
That's what I do
When I can't get what I need from you
In Mexico
In Mexico

I'm the crazy one they can point to
I'm the one who's taking the heat
So I slip out at night
And walk through the street

I say yes, sir
I say ma'am
When they ask me who I think I am
Servants bring me steak and lamb
While I measure by the milligram

I'm shooting speed
'Cause that's what I do
When I can't get what I need from you
In Mexico
In Mexico
Oh, in Mexico
