Stingray Pete

Honey, it's been days
Since the sun rised
Through the smokey haze
Underneath the dark spliff

Down the middle
Don't look the other way
While she's been waiting
Bartender keep the change

Hurry out of town
And she's driving me this way
Caught the LA flu
Now it's time to vaccinate

Down a dusty reservoir
Saddle up a view
On 'cross the velvet
She dances without shoes

When you feel it comin' on
You know you gotta chase it
Bartender, something strong
Girl, you gotta taste it forever
Stingray Pete just called swimming up a stream
The night is always young
As long as she keeps breaking down

As she moves in a way
Got the neon space
Drowned a man in petrol
With a smile on his face

She always knows
Just how far to leave him
But keeps him close enough
So he can never escape

When you feel it comin' on
You know you gotta chase it
Bartender, something strong
Girl, you gotta taste it forever
Stingray Pete just called swimming up a stream
The night is always young
As long as she keeps breaking down

Oh yeah, he's got the key
Yeah, he's got the key
Ride on tonight
Yeah, he's got the key
Ride on tonight
Ride on

When you feel it comin' on
You know you gotta chase it
Bartender, something strong
Girl, you gotta taste it forever
Stingray Pete just called swimming up a stream
The night is always young
As long as she keeps breaking down

When you feel it comin' on
You know you gotta chase it
Bartender, something strong
Girl, you gotta taste it forever
Stingray Pete just called swimming up a stream
The night is always young
As long as she keeps breaking down
