Back to Main Page

There was a certain look in his eyes that night

Reflected from the stark blue light

Shining from the pumps

Sitting there alone with his lukewarm beer

Wondering why he ever came in here

Another low life dump

And his eyes are glazed

And his head is swimming

In the cigarette haze

Its been a slow day,

A slow day

A low, slow day

For fast women

He is thinking back twenty years ago

Had everything he needed to know

To get him through the day

He had real thick hair and a very thin waist

Its in reverse, to his distaste

He’s forgotten what to say

And his eyes are glazed

And his head is swimming

In the cigarette haze

Its been a slow day,

A slow day

A low, slow day

For fast women

He drinks his beer and gets to his feet

Heads off down those empty streets

Making for his home

Too many drinks and cold memories

Those lost lovers and old enemies

Have left him here alone

And his eyes are glazed

And his head is swimming

In the cigarette haze

Its been a slow day,

A slow day

A low, slow day

For fast women
