Star Witness
Neko Case

My true love drowned

In a dirty old pan of oil

That did run from the block

Of a Falcon sedan 1969

The paper said '75

There were no survivors

None found alive


Trees break the sidewalk

And the sidewalk skins my knee

There's glass in my thermos

And blood on my jeans

Nickels and dimes

Of the 4th of July

Roll off in a crooked line

To the chain-link lots

Where the red-tails dive

Oh how I'd forgot

What it's like


Hey when she sings

When she sings

When she sings like she runs

Moves like she runs

Hey when she moves

When she moves

When she moves like she runs

Moves like she runs

Hey there there's such tender wolves

Round town tonight

Round the town tonight

Hey there there's such tender wolves

Round town tonight

Round the town tonight


Hey pretty baby get high with me

We can go to my sister's

If you say we'll watch the baby

The look on your face

Yanks my neck on the chain

And I would do anything

(I would do anything)

To see you again

So I've fallen behind


Hey when she sings

When she sings

When she sings like she runs

Moves like she runs

Hey when she moves

When she moves

When she moves like she runs

Moves like she runs

Hey there there's such tender wolves

Round town tonight

Round the town tonight

Hey there there's such tender wolves

Round town tonight

Round the town tonight


Go on, go on and scream and cry

You're miles from where anyone will find you

This is nothing new

No television crew

They don't even put on the siren

My nightgown sweeps the pavement

Please

Don't let him die

Oh how I forgot
