DTonite on Keyhole street, Dwhere tablet, spoon & needle meet Painfully dangerous Gfallen angels will swoon over crooners with Dpowdery eyes DOn Ellington Square, they're dying their hair Dand they're finger painting on their criminal stares They'll have to Gstruggle to tell, paradise from hell withoDut me tonight
[Chorus]
And, I Adon't understand - No, I Bmdon't understand A G What itA means to be a married man, I don't underDstand
[Verse 2]
DA summer ago after years of gathering mold She stowed her ripped up slips & her Gjet black lipstick away and let her strawberry Dblonde roots grow DNow it's hard to believe, we were the King & the Queen Dof the fiends in the leather and mascara scene and Gtrampiest pair of vampire magazine Dpin-ups Don dance hall row
[Chorus]
And, I Adon't understand - No, I Bmdon't understand A G What itA means to be a married man, I don't underDstand
[Bridge]
In the Bmwarm morning Glight the uDndead all someday aArise and if the sBmunlight don't strike them Gblind they'll wind up in lDimbo condemned to surAvive I don't underBmstand,A G I don't underDstand
[Repeat Intro] G D G A D [Verse 3]
DI remember a June, when each afternoon Dshe awakened me softly, with kisses and coffee and satG naked on the edge of the bed, smoking Marlboro Dreds til the rise of the moon DBut I'm too numb now to dream, suspended between Dthe handsome woman she's become and the need for the Ghellcat she used to be I don't see why they botDh can't be true
[Chorus]
And, I Adon't understand - No, I Bmdon't understand A G What itA means to be a married man, I don't underDstand
[Bridge]
In the Bmwarm morning Glight the uDndead all someday aArise and if the sBmunlight don't strike them Gblind they'll wind up in lDimbo condemned to surAvive I don't underBmstand,A G I don't underDstand
[Verse 4]
DTonight on Keyhole street Dwhere fabric, moonlight and heat all meet awkwardly cruel little Gharlots will drool over bar stool sex tools with DX's for eyes DOn Ellington Square they're teasing their hair Dand they're painting on their latex play wear they'll have to Gbalance the peril of paradise and hell withDout me tonight
[Final CHORUS]
And, I Adon't understand - No, I Bmdon't understand A G I can Ahold her sweet face in my hands I still don't Dunderstand
