the vandal and the saint - david j lyrics
shielding my eyes against the shatterlight dawn
as inviting as the wrong end of a gun
reluctant farewells
then a taxi ride back to the lonesome hotel
sharing a room with the butcher
looking for her street on the map
i had half a mind to go back there
i had to choose between the vandal and the saint
she looked like a german film star
dressed in limousine black
a dancer portraying a waitress
both ballet and burlesque
i couldn’t take my eyes off her
she said she liked the soft songs best
oh, elvira
a kiss for the vandal and the saint
i felt like b*tter on a knife’s edge
in love with the handsome beast
and the line between life and stupid glory
that sets the wicked pace
i am serving a residency
here with the frankfurt blues
the ghosts of conquests past
walking in a dead man’s shoes
i believe in the happy idiot
in the international free state
i believe in the truth behind the paint that roars
i believe in the vandal and the saint
oh elvira
