Venus - Live 1992

A tight toy night, streets so bright
The world was so thin between my bones and skin
There stood another person who was a little surprised
To be face to face with a world so alive

How I fell? (Did ya feel low?)
Nah (huh?)
I fell right into the arms of Venus de Milo

You know it's all like some new drug
My senses are sharp, my hands are like gloves
Broadway looked so medieval, it seemed to flap like little pages
And I fell sideways laughing with a friend from many stages

I fell (did ya feel low?)
Nah (huh?)
I fell right into the arms of Venus de Milo

Suddenly my eyes went so soft and shaky
I knew there was pain, but pain is not aching
Then Richie, Richie said
"Why don't we dress up like cops, man, think of what we could do?"
But something, something, it said, "You better not"

I still fell (did ya feel low?)
Nah (huh?)
I stood up, walked out of the arms of Venus de Milo
