Beaches in TX

Solo stop at the bottle shop, I knocked the Captain Morgan down
They charged my card, you could hear it bounce

And I don't care if it's the new year, I don't want anyone else around
I see the signs, I count it down

And I would have to kiss your dad if it's gonna stop
his holy-roller mouth
I die when you don't protect yourself

Pray the sky would open up like a zipper
Pray the state would just let it all go
You could burn all the dashcam pictures
You could toss your little lizard out the window
I never thought of all the beaches in Texas
Guess I always knew it bordered the sea
Talking better to myself when I'm naked
I take a little picture for me

A disco ball in the dining hall,
all the animals amble out
All the talking heads, all the rodeo clowns

But you find the sun
to loosen up my monkey-in-a-barrel arms
To free apart any interlocking parts

And I bathe in the light and I soak it up
And you squeeze me like a sponge
You wash the rocks I wash up on

I never thought of all the beaches in Texas
There is magic in the shape of the tea leaves
Am I worthy of all of the hatred?
Never thought of all the churches in Vegas
There is soothing in divine superveillance
Anytime you leave your shoes at a Play Place
It never hurts to have a friend in Jesus
Talking better to myself when I'm naked
Pray the sky would open up like a zipper
You could float out of time with the sea
It can hurt to have a friend in Jesus
I just want my MTV
