don't let me explode (the virgin digital sessions) - the hold steady lyrics

yeah, he said, “what about los angeles?”
and she said, “we never really made it that far west”
yeah, we scored big in denver
and we thought it might be best
to go hang around in the upper midwest

and he said, “what about new orleans?”
she said, “i don’t think you understand quite what that means”
and all those hangers*on
the girls lifting up their shirts when the cameras come on
yeah, so we been trying to stay away from all those kinda scenes

oh, we didn’t go to dallas
’cause jackie onassis said
that it ain’t safe for catholics yet
think about what they pulled on john kennedy
and then think about all his security
oh, think about what they might try to pull on you and me

saint barbara, i’m calling your name
we’ll hook it all up
i guess there’s fields of speed where there’s fields of grain
saint barbara, don’t let me explode
i can feel the whole scene starting to corrode
when we’re fooling around on the frontage roads
so he asked her what happened to charlemagne
she just smiled all polite*like and said something vague
she said, “charlemagne got caught up in some complicated things”
then she wiped at her nose and she winked

- the hold steady lyrics
