Denver Haircut
He shaved his head at the airport
In a bar at the end of the concourse
He said you’re kind of catching me at a transitional time
…
Wherever he goes he always orders the usual
He likes to see what they’ll bring him
— The Hold Steady, “Denver Haircut”
Dope Lemon – Hey You
Batphone
I’ve recognized the glow of your low beams numerous times
Through fairly opaque blinds in the sitting room
Vehicles will pass by but I know when it’s you
…
Killer pink flamingos
Computer controlled
Panoramic windows looking out across your soul
— Arctic Monkeys, “Batphone”
