Come on, come on She was a waitress she looked real tine The little temptress was so divine A symphony of cheap perfume and pretty stale red wine She can wait upon my table anytime She was poetry in motion Stiletto heels and nylons she moved up to the table I could see she had a burger with my fries on Love lies bleeding, listen to this, love lies bleeding Well we parked outside a city bank We found it all real funny The car was running on all tanks and we stole all the money She was a wicked wily waitress and she should be doing time She was an ordinary waitress now she owns her own goldmine How 'bout that Love lies bleeding, now listen to this, love lies bleeding She was a rebel without a cause She was a girl who needed applause Love in the future, love in the past Love lies bleeding in our path Would you believe that it gets worse She had a loud theatrical whisper I had a one way ticket to Palookaville She had an equally dangerous sister I was out of my league, they were in for the k** She was a wicked wily waitress And I gave her all my trust She took the loot, gave me the boot Now she's rich and I'm flat bust Yeah love lies bleeding Now that was the limit because She was a rebel without a cause She was a girl who needed applause Love in the future, love in the past Love in the future, love in the past Love lies bleeding in our path I dreamed this world was quite alright, And everyone meant well When I awoke to my surprise I found myself in hell
