Lyrics Frank Black

Frank Black

Velvety

Out on the Eisenhower where I lost my speed

Just a little bit south of a town called weed

I heard a voice and I had to stop

She called me over that mountain top

I was a poor soul lost in the shady trees

I was going to die, I was going to freeze

Then she touched me

She was velvety

She's a cat of a creature

She don't care she's velvety

She made the strangest sounds

She was an island girl of the ancient line

When the whole damn thing's sinkin' to the brine

Her true love from her was torn

She packed it up to californ

Then she met me

She's velvety

She's a cat of a creature

Don't care she's velvety

Out on the Eisenhower where I lost my speed

Just a little bit south of a town called weed

I met velvety

My velvety

I like that lemur

I lick it, it's velvety

She made a pretty sound
