Blue Oyster Cult - Before The Kiss Lyrics
So grab your rose and ring side seat,Were back home at conrys barThe blond girl with her tattoo,Reds and wine, cokes of courseOh my suzy, my suzy,Why did we ever startIts morning now, youd never knowThe gin, the gin, glows in the dark, glows in the darkAnd underneath, the black light,Underneath it allFour and forty redheads meet,Come to doom til the dawnWith threats of gas and rose motifTheir lips apart like a swollen roseTheir tongues extend, and then retractA redcap, a redcap, before the kiss, before the kiss.Doors like flint and window panesAn endless shadow barThe owners boys have gone to workTo stop big deals behind the barWhile outside on the turnpikeThey got this new hit tuneWhere thrills become as cheap as gasAnd gas as cheap as thrillsOne thrill and mundane here at lastExpect the cross one moreLecherous invisibleBeware the limping catWhose black teeth grip between loose jawsStill ripe and fully bloomedA rose thats not from anywhereThat you would know or I would careAnd the owners boys act most cheerfullyBack home at conrys barWhen their patrons thoughts at lastGrow too big for their skullsAnd awful things are happeningWeve let this drama foldAnd now the time has come at lastTo crush the motif of the rose.So grab your rose and ring side seatWere back home at conrys barThe blond girl with her tattooReds and wine, cokes of courseOh my suzy, my suzyWhy did we ever startIts morning now, youd never knowThe gin, the gin, glows in the dark, glows in the dark
