"Jackie, Dressed In Cobras"


Look, we've seen this kind of thing before
Jackie threats with cobras at the door
don't live your life inside a narrow filled with glances
New York City find your chances
yes you've had 'em
yes you've had 'em
yes you've had 'em

on a train devouring the land
there's a kid going insane over her man
insane over her man
insane over her

look, we've seen this kind of thing before
four kids hanging from the reference door
and if he hollers let him out
cause he's gonna shout
something in the way she moves
just shouldn't be allowed

left on the jungle floor
Jackie's dressed in cobras
givin me ideas
what I really need now is ideas

look, we've seen this kind of thing before
vampires flown across the ballroom floor
mistake his blood-lust feast for dancin
New York City find your chances
yes you've had 'em
yes you've had 'em
yes you've had 'em

on a train devouring the land
there's a kid going insane over her man
insane over her man
insane over her

on a train devouring the land
there's a kid going insane over her man
insane over her man
insane over her

on a train devouring the land
there's a kid going insane over her man
insane over her man
insane over her

left on the jungle floor
Jackie's dressed in cobras

left on the jungle floor
Jackie's dressed in cobras
