lyrics

Gal waving a sign for the triple-X store
“Business is slow this year,” they say at the door
Lost in the desert, of course you’ll look twice
Found in the desert, you better play nice

You can stay all night long
You can look but don’t touch
Yeah I like you, but don’t get me wrong
I don’t want to like you too much

Not everyone’s a friend, some have no time
For a woman in charge, nothing is fine
Lost in the desert with a bunch of snakes
Found in the desert, what does that take?

You can stay all night long
You can look but don’t touch
Yeah I like you, but don’t get me wrong
I don’t want to like you too much

Life drops you harder in this kind of place
See those marks in the sand?
Some things time won't ever erase

Fiddle has no string, dog has no bark
Talk all you want, it’s already dark
Lost in the desert, the stars mean everything
“Found” in the desert has a whole other ring

You can stay all night long
You can look but don’t touch
Yeah I like you, but don’t get me wrong
I don’t want to like you too much
