The Getaway

 

 The Getaway

The getaway is the 5th song on TV Girl's 2014 album "French Exit"


("You are very young. You are clever. And you are very beautiful. Because of your youth, you should be exceptionally valuable to us.")
("And I was very lonely. So I thought tonight I will have an adventure.")
("If I'm never to see you again I can forget you in a minute! You'll see!")

("She's just pretending.")
("You were wrong. I wasn't! I loved you!")

[Verse 1]
Well this thing that we had built
Was flaying into shreds
It was sharp and it was dry
Like the hair on a shrunken head
And all the king's men
Spread the pieces on the floor
By the time they fit together
We had forgotten what they were for

Pretending like she's beautiful
In the pictures I can see
But she only picks the good ones
And that's more than I can say for me

[Chorus]
But that's the way it always starts
You feel like Lily and the Jack of Hearts
Always making out like bandits
Until you get away and it falls apart
It falls apart

[Verse 2]
You're always dressed up like a priest
You're always drilling through the wall
Cracking the safe and skipping town
While poor Rosemary takes the fall

You're always looking for the future
Rinsing out the dye
Looking for a moral to the story
That sounded good and happened to rhyme
Rosemary on the gallows
Dressed like nothing's wrong
No funeral no flowers
For an outlaw in a song

[Chorus]
But that's the way it always starts
You feel like Lily and the Jack of Hearts
Always making out like bandits
Until you get away and it falls apart
It falls apart

("She's just pretending.")
("You were wrong. I wasn't! I loved you!")

[Chorus]

[Outro]
But that's the way it always starts (that's the way it always starts)
You feel like Lily and the Jack of Hearts
