Lyrics The Thrills

The Thrills

Faded Beauty Queens

How did you do it?

'Well,' she said, 'smoke & mirrors...

Anything for love

Anything for love'

Low expectations

Are breathing down my back

No grudge unworthy of holding

I know that won't be hard, I know that won't be hard

You can't take the city, oh no

Out of a city girl

Well I don't know how we ended up here

Wide eyed and new money

With faded beauty queens

Well I don't know how we ended up here

Right before I met you

I had fire in my eyes

Down my the river

I found a little town

Down by the river

Where all the lovers go, all the lovers go

Making teenage boys feel

Like a Christmas tree

Ogling eyes, ogling eyes

I know you dread the day, when it's any other way

You can't take the city, oh no

Out of a city girl

Well I don't know how we ended up here

Wide eyed and new money

With faded beauty queens

Well I don't know how we ended up here

Right before I met you

I had fire in my eyes

You can't take the city, oh no

Out of a city girl

Well I don't know how we ended up here

Wide eyed and new money

With faded beauty queens

Well I don't know how we ended up here

Right before I met you

I had fire in my eyes

In my eyes
