Big Head Todd & the Monsters - Riviera lyrics

Just a little bit gun-shy, with a criminal mind

She came in like an animal and left like an innocent child

Now I'm stranded on empty, across nation lines

Clear night like a rosary against a dashboard light

Driving to you, Riviera

How long can you run?

Now the moon and the pavement are like noon daylight

Smokestacks and the gambling signs along the black horizon line

I once had a sister like you, lost on the other side

You run because you have to, from the firing lines

Shot into you Riviera, how long can you run?

Ain't it strange how the ones you steal, they keep you alive

How she could make you feel like you never been high?

I can't remember what was real - like a killer in denial

Careful to conceal every last line leading to you, Riviera

I deliver to you- the Riviera! How long can you run?
