Fetish Night at the Bingo Hall Lyrics

Hawking redemption and grace

Behind each pitch a hopeless face

Motel livings got me low

An open door can be so cold

Hit the stems inside my Bible's spine

Salvation's all in your mind

You know time it has a way

Of running out on you early

So I went to the leather district

Got myself a new outfit

In that dark and dingy bingo hall

My heart as lonely as a strip mall

Over the din of numbers called

I wondered if I needed love at all

Cigarette smoke fills the air

The divorcees exhale despair

And in those dreadful plastic chairs

I saw you sitting there

Bible black shoulder length hair

In a shirt you won at a state fair

Your mouth like a city block

So full of life the way you talk

My dear if you let me linger

I'll slip onto your ring finger

On fetish night at the bingo hall

My heart as warm as a Pall Mall

Over the din of numbers called

I found someone to love with my all

Stealing vows from the bathroom stall

Fluorescent flickers on tile floor

Swimming in ceramic swirl

Holding the ink stained hands of my girl
