LYRICS
Is that a black widow spider
Or a skinny young blonde that he’s waiting for
Down by the nail salon?
And is it blood on his shoulder, a little on his cheek?
He told her he’d be home inside a week
He said he just needs a little time to clear out his head
A few good nights sleepin’ on a cheap motel bed
In a little town somewhere north of
Venice by the beach
Where everyone’s a little out of reach
Yeah, it’s just a portrait of the artist as a middle-aged man
Staring blankly at the canvas with his trembling hand
While back at home they’re hanging tinsel and fighting back the tears
No one’s singing Christmas songs around here
’Cause here’s just rag mags and some menthols in a crumpled shopping bag
He’s got the Avis blacked out Camaro keys in his other hand
And he looks down at the ocean at the end of the road
He thinks, “I’d rather drown than charge up my phone”.
But now it’s raining in Latigo, it’s slippery on the road
She’s dialing up another song he doesn’t know
Some girls quite like country music but that’s not so common now
Boys, you know what I’m talking about
Now, it’s just a portrait of the driver as a middle-aged man
Riding shotgun is a woman that he could never understand
She’s got her feet up the dashboard while he fumbles for the gears
Neither one’s been so dissatisfied in years
But have you ever seen the city from a rental car at night?
Through a foggy rear view mirror, it’s a melancholy sight
And when you bit the hand that fed you
And hurt the ones you love the most
Well, it’s best you just keep driving up the coast
Well, now she’s paying with his credit card
While he’s gathering up his thoughts
She’s got peroxide and a ponytail, and some cut-off denim shorts
Bare midriff and a bracelet that was just this morning bought
You see it all ends up as evidence in court
Yeah, it’s just a portrait of the husband as a middle-aged man
He’s standing there all stripped to bare and covered in fake tan
She’s dancing in the shallows while he’s clinging to his beer
Who knows, he could be dead inside a year
Yeah, it’s just a portrait of the artist as a middle-aged man
Staring blankly at the canvas with his trembling hand
And he’d appreciate an audience to watch him disappear
Any luck and he’ll be dead inside a year
While back at home they’re hanging tinsel and fighting back the tears
No one’s singing Christmas songs around here
