Straw Dog lyrics

Staring into the intersection
she thinks that she can fly and she might
holding on in a new direction
she`s gonna try it tonight
the closer i get to feeling
the further that i`m feeling from alright
the more i step into the sun
the more i step out of the light

Jessica is covered in a blanket
on a sunday porch
thinking on the weekends
she would party in the city
she doesn`t have a flame
she`d prefer to burn out
like a torch
If she gets nowhere in life
At least she knows she`s pretty

She says

Hey Now The Straw dog`s out in the street
Hey now there`s chemicals in the clouds
Hey now they`re calling all the police
But they wont get to us anyhow

The moon is shining now
And shadows are what`s left of all the noise
simple silhouettes and cut outs
As if we had a choice
he listens closely now
swears that he can hear a voice
that`s calling him

and saying

Hey now the straw dog`s out in the street
Hey now there`s chemicals in the clouds
Hey now there calling all the police
but they wont get to us anyhow... No

What does it take to be a super hero in my world
make no mistake that these villains always get the girl
we can escape and then we`d skate away from all of this
but no one ever does

She`s saying

Hey now the straw dog`s out in the street
hey now there`s chemicals in the clouds
hey now they`re calling all the police
but they wont get to us
No they`ll never get to us
hey now the straw dog`s out in the street
hey now there`s chemicals in the clouds
they`re calling all the police
but they wont get to us
na na na na na na na na now
