Nuns Song Lyrics - Real Animal - Alejandro Escovedo

We don't want your approval 

It's 1978 

We know we're not in tune 

We know we'll never be great 

We met at this bar 

A little piece of fame 

Up on the bandstand 

Nobody knows no shame 

Louie louie talk 

Well what you got on me 

Louie louii, I 

I don't even 

Try, try, try, try, try 

We've got so much to live for 

It's not too late 

We've got so much to live for 

It's not too late 

Jennifer my scony 

Don't need anybody's pain 

She had enough desire 

To shatter window panes 

She said "I'm not fond of small talk" 

Down on Levenworth and Poke 

She said I don't need your heroes 

To make my life a joke 

ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha 

We've got so much to live for 

It's not too late 

We've got so much to live for 

It's not too late 

You take a Mill Valley charmer 

Mix in some Bowie trash 

A little too much mascara 

Under a surgeon's mask 

She cuddles like a puppy 

Yeah man, you know she will 

You've never heard her bark like an animal, ha 

Yeah, I've heard her myself 

She hit me in the head with a fantasy 

Yeah it's stuck to my cheek 

My lip was bleeding 

Blood running down my face 

I put her back on my own yeah 

Punched myself in the mouth 

I put her back on my own head 

Punched myself in the mouth 

I turn on the tv 

You're teeth were burning bright 

I turn off the tv 

And kiss myself good night 

Good night, good night 

[Chorus: Repeat 2X]
