Keeper Lyrics - Steve Kilbey

Waitress with the short hair is stoned 

She drifts amongst the tables 

Old ladies talk like birds 

That'd fly if they were able 

The coffee has a calming effect 

I'm nervous when I travel 

Red lights and steel worms 

Let the journey unravel 

Keeper 

She's a keeper 

Sleeper 

You should keep her 

The wine seems to have sobered me up 

I'm hardly shaking 

I'm gonna lose myself this time 

And time that it's taking 

There's no charge if you want to top up 

The clientele are extras 

Juggle their lives and their loves 

Nicely ambidextrous 

The speed seems to have slowed me down 

We talk about William from Glide 

The things of the towns go by 

I'm driving on the wrong side 

Keeper 

Sleeper
