Desert - Damien Jurado

Tell me when tomorrow comes

I’ll be the first to ride

Start the car and honk the horn

I’ll be right outside

Pour a drink and open wide

I have things to tell

I have seen the brighter side

Of the roads that lead to hell

Yesterday is miles away

You’ll miss it if you blink

And I’ve found my salvation in The places where you drink

You can say you’re on my side

And I know that’s a lie

'Cause given the chance you’d stab my back

And leave me here to die

Just give me the keys tonight

I’m happy when I drive

Revenge is the perfect word

For what I have in mind

Desert lives bring deserted lives

I know from first hand

We’re moved around like circus clowns

When laughter’s in demand
