Build God, Then We’ll Talk

 

It’s these substandard motels on the (La, la, la, la) corner of 4th and Fremont Street

 

Appealing only because they are just that unappealing

Any practiced catholic would cross themselves upon entering

 

The rooms have a hint of asbestos

And maybe just a dash of formaldehyde

And the habit of decomposing

Right before your very (La, la, la, la) eyes

 

Along with the people inside

What a wonderful caricature of intimacy

Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy

 

Tonight tenants range from a lawyer and a virgin

Accessorizing with a rosary tucked inside her lingerie

She’s getting a job at the firm come Monday

 

The Mrs. will stay with the cheating attorney

Moonlighting aside, she really needs his money

Oh, wonderful caricature of intimacy

 

Yeah

(Yeah)

 

And not to mention, the constable

And his proposition, for that virgin

Yes, the one the lawyer met with on strictly business

As he said to the Mrs. Well, only hours before

 

After he had left, she was fixing her face in a compact

There was a terrible crash, (There was a terrible crash) between her and the badge

She spilled her purse and her bag

And held a purse of a different kind

 

Along with the people inside

What a wonderful caricature of intimacy

Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy

 

There are no raindrops on roses and girls in white dresses

It’s sleeping with roaches and taking best guesses

At the shade of the sheets and before all the stains

And a few more of your least favorite things

 

Raindrops on roses and girls in white dresses

It’s sleeping with roaches and taking best guesses

At the shade of the sheets and before all the stains

And a few more of your least favorite things

 

Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy

Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy

 

Raindrops on roses and girls in white dresses

It’s sleeping with roaches and taking best guesses

At the shade of the sheets and before all the stains

And a few more of your least favorite things

 

Raindrops on roses and the girls in white dresses

And the sleeping with the roaches and the taking best guesses

At the shade of the sheets and before all the stains

And a few more of your least favorite things
