Pink Flamingos (Letra)

(wood newton/micki furhman)

I was a rebel in my younger years
I’d…drink with the devil if he bought me a beer
Wore out two pickups just running around
Mama thought i never would settle down
That was before i met sweet irma jean
She made a new man outta me

We got pink flamingos in the front yard
Picture window with a view of wal-mart
Blue collar heaven domestic bliss
It just doesn’t get any better than this
We got pink flamingos, pink flamingos, pink flamingos

Sweet irma jean is a den mother now
With a station wagon and a charge account
Bubba junior pitches for his baseball team
Little sister’s running for rose bud queen
And me i’m doing good at the used car lot
Is this a great country or what

People slow down when they drive by
They wave and smile but there’s envy in their eyes
We ain’t rich and won’t be for a while
But no doubt about it baby we got style

With got pink flamingos in the front yard
Picture window with a view of wal-mart
Blue collar heaven domestic bliss
It just doesn’t get any better than this
With got pink flamingos in the front yard
Picture window with a view of wal-mart
Blue collar heaven domestic bliss
It just doesn’t get any better than this
We got pink flamingos
Picture windows
Pink flamingos

1) So what if my house has wheels
Theres nothing that I have you’d want to steal
I hear my ex’s voice in my kids dirty little mouth
If it wasnt for welfare id never go out to see my

Chorus –
Pink flamingos
My pink flamingos

2) I like my life in this funky little town
I hope a tornado wont blow it all down
Sit so proud in my rusted out cadillac
But if it worked good id never come back to see my

Chorus

3) The man from the bank come with a truck
To take my home away
They took my kids, my dog, my little goldfish
But as they rolled out I said i’ll stay with my

Chorus

Dan and I like Las Vegas, never seen the sea
Where the river, where the river bed runs dry
She closes his eyes, puts her ear to his shirt
And listens to the whole wide earth
Lila’s ready, she look in the mirror
He has stopped, he can’t hear her
She stops in a bar, apparently she is unhurt
And with a little bit of change, oh feels good
She washes her wings in the dirt
And the bar is filled with angels cuz the world is turned upside down
All of you’ve been walking on your heads
Since the day your feet touched the ground
Any day, any day we’ll go home
Any day, any day we’ll go home, home
Well he knocks on the door, someone show him how
And I seen them before, I know him somehow
Why does he stick to my fingers?
Why does this look like his soul?
They could just make him a heaven or hell
What don’t they?
I don’t know
What do they want with these angels?
Why don’t they take them to Reno?
Nobody ever comes for them
They’re all inside of the casinos
Look at them poking like flightless birds falling from paper plates
Oh home, heavenly earthbound
But the spirit cannot wait to fly like the pink flamingos
To fly like the pink flamingos, fly, fly ?
