Hello Deadly

lyrics

On a cold night
In the Springtime
In New Orleans, 1919
It was almost like the cold was living in your bones
But we opened
All the windows
From the parlor to the bedroom
And danced, and played, and sang until the day was reborn
Cause that can’t happen here
Nothing happens here

Hello Deadly, you look lonely as I
A turn of happenstance
And I could walk a crooked mile
Hello Deadly, you brought a city to life
For desperate vanity
Or just a lonely impulse of delight

So my mind set
On a vengeance
and I stocked up
For protection
And lost Lenore may fear no more when floorboards moan

cause the jazz songs
They were lamb’s blood
On the doorway to being someone
But we still want to keep a weapon in our home
Cause that can’t happen here

Hello Deadly, you look lonely as I
A turn of happenstance
And I could walk a crooked mile
Hello Deadly, you brought a city to life
For desperate vanity
Its just a lonely impulse when I say
Hello Deadly I’m hoping for a sign
An answer on marquees, sparkling in light
But all that we get is a
Lightning Bug’s flicker to light up the cure
Hello Deadly tell me where it hurts
